A guide to healing foods and home remedies reported to and verified by Joe and Terry Graedon, including their carefully researched responses on how and why such treatments work. The core of this title is organized as Q&As between the general public and the Graedons. It contains as much information as a voluminous encyclopedia of home remedies, yet it’s quick, easy, inviting, and fun to read, with the same friendly and authoritative personality conveyed in their popular call-in radio show. The Graedons also offer a dozen new recipes for food so good for you, it serves as preventive medicine.
Organized alphabetically by ailment and then, within each of those, by food or remedy. Offers the basics of three standard diets for health, weight control, and fitness, along with a dozen new recipes for preparing food to match the diets. Includes a helpful index and cross-referencing system, making the book both a good shelf reference and an entertaining browse.
This book builds on the reputation of The People’s Pharmacy and adds the extra value that comes from a partnership with National Geographic.
John Rabbing and his cousin Sagittarius are the favoured grandsons of their grandfather, Smatch, a cheerful old man who plays the bones and holds his eccentric, strong-willed family together like aging glue. Just before Smatch dies, he commits the boys to a deathbed promise: they will always keep music in their lives.
And if a few of Smatch’s old friends come by, needing a place to play, the young men will open up their apartment for the cause.
That promise kicks open the door to a parade of strange and quirky musicians whose music haunts and transforms, bringing magic and opening the door to something even more unexpected: hope for a family that is falling apart.
„Of Men and Bones“ is a short story.
