Food Glorious Food: Incredibly Delicious Low-GL Recipes for Friends and Family
By: Patrick Holford
List Price: $21.94
Amazon Price: $15.26

Product Description
Food GLorious Food is not a diet or cookbook in the traditional sense, but rather a celebration of the ingredients that can help us all to eat a healthier diet. This is no tough dietary regime though - the recipes are delicious and exciting and have the added advantage of being low GL too. That means you - and your guests - can enjoy meals that are both deeply satisfying and health enriching. Written in association with Fiona McDonald Joyce, who specialises in healthy food that doesn't compromise on taste, Food GLorious Food is filled with dishes that'll impress family and friends - without the need to resort to creamy sauces, sugar-laden concoctions or overly complex cooking texhniques. With everything from curries to healthy roasts and gluten-free chocolate brownies, good food is firmly on the menu. This book is essential reading for anyone who wants to feel and look healthier and boost energy levels, without disappointing their taste buds.

Golden Arches East: McDonald's in East Asia, Second Edition
By:
List Price: $22.95
Amazon Price: $15.61

Product Description
McDonald?s restaurants are found in over 100 countries, serving tens of millions of people each day. What are the cultural implications of this phenomenal success? The widely read?and widely acclaimed?Golden Arches East argues that McDonald?s has largely become divorced from its American roots and become a ?local? institution for an entire generation of affluent consumers in Hong Kong, Beijing, Taipei, Seoul, and Tokyo. In the second edition, James L. Watson also covers recent attacks on the fast-food chain as a symbol of American imperialism, and the company?s role in the obesity controversy currently raging in the U.S. food industry, bringing the story of East Asian franchises into the twenty-first century.

Praise for the First Edition:

?Golden Arches East is a fascinating study that explores issues of globalization by focusing on the role of McDonald?s in five Asian economies and [concludes] that in many countries McDonald?s has been absorbed by local communities and become assimilated, so that it is no longer thought of as a foreign restaurant and in some ways no longer functions as one.? ?Nicholas Kristof, New York Times Book Review

?This is an important book because it shows accurately and with subtlety how transnational culture emerges. It must be read by anyone interested in globalization. It is concise enough to be used for courses in anthropology and Asian studies.? ?Joseph Bosco, China Journal

?The strength of this book is that the contributors contextualize not just the food side of McDonald's, but the social and cultural activity on which this culture is embedded. These are culturally rich stories from the anthropology of everyday life.? ?Paul Noguchi, Journal of Asian Studies

?Here is the rare academic study that belongs in every library.??Library Journal

Healthy Foods on the Rise January 7th, 2009 by Patrick Glancy, BCH This generation will forever be known as the XXL generation.
