Download or read book The Exhaustion Breakthrough written by Holly Phillips and published by Rodale. This book was released on 2015-06-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's become the norm to complain that we're always tired. In The Exhaustion Breakthrough, Dr. Holly Phillips aims to end this accepted state of exhaustion and send a message to readers that they do not have to be drained of energy just because they have a demanding job, a family, or an active social life--or all three. She also explains the insidious nature of fatigue, educating readers on the havoc that persistent tiredness wreaks on the body and mind, from weight gain and cognitive impairment to even a higher risk of heart attack and stroke. Dr. Holly's passion for the subject stems from the quest to cure her own constant weariness--which she struggled with for more than 20 years--as well as the countless complaints of chronic tiredness she hears from patients each day in her internal medicine practice. While a few readers might find a link between their fatigue and a medical condition such as chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia, Dr. Holly knows that many more will discover that diet, exercise, and sleep habits are contributing to their lack of energy. This guide will help readers understand their exhaustion, rule out any underlying illnesses, correct any allergies or hormonal issues that may be contributing to extreme tiredness, and incorporate lifestyle factors and alternative therapies that will improve overall energy. Clear, comprehensive, and practical, The Exhaustion Breakthrough shines a bright light on an issue many people have simply accepted--but that they don't have to any longer.

Download or read book Outnumbered written by David Sumpter and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-19 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Fascinating' - Financial Times Algorithms are running our society, and as the Cambridge Analytica story has revealed, we don't really know what they are up to. Our increasing reliance on technology and the internet has opened a window for mathematicians and data researchers to gaze through into our lives. Using the data they are constantly collecting about where we travel, where we shop, what we buy and what interests us, they can begin to predict our daily habits. But how reliable is this data? Without understanding what mathematics can and can't do, it is impossible to get a handle on how it is changing our lives. In this book, David Sumpter takes an algorithm-strewn journey to the dark side of mathematics. He investigates the equations that analyse us, influence us and will (maybe) become like us, answering questions such as: - Who are Cambridge Analytica? And what are they doing with our data? - How does Facebook build a 100-dimensional picture of your personality? - Are Google algorithms racist and sexist? - Why do election predictions fail so drastically? - Are algorithms that are designed to find criminals making terrible mistakes? - What does the future hold as we relinquish our decision-making to machines? Featuring interviews with those working at the cutting edge of algorithm research, including Alex Kogan from the Cambridge Analytica story, along with a healthy dose of mathematical self-experiment, Outnumbered explains how mathematics and statistics work in the real world, and what we should and shouldn't worry about. A lot of people feel outnumbered by algorithms – don't be one of them.
