Download or read book Fit Cities written by Karen K. Lee and published by Doubleday Canada. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Karen K. Lee is a force for good around the world, working behind the scenes to help people improve their diets, get in shape, and live longer. In the arena of public health, this Canadian woman is an international superstar. In the early 2000s, she went to the US to join a team of "health detectives" for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Smoking was in decline, and so the US CDC's attention had turned to the next biggest causes of premature death: over-eating and under-exercising. Dr. Lee's zeal in seeking out the root causes--in schools, restaurants, and environments that encourage a sedentary, calorie-packed way of life--was matched by her inspired approach to finding solutions. She was next recruited by the City of New York, where she was instrumental in introducing Active Design, an initiative for creating opportunities for healthy living in everyday life that has helped reverse childhood obesity and lengthen life expectancies. Her influence has since spread around the world. Dr. Lee has always known that health education, public service announcements, and our individual struggles are not enough. The world around us needs to change to support us in taking steps (literally and figuratively) to save our own lives. Working with civic leaders, city planners, and architects, she has been a pioneer in addressing today's leading health problems, such as obesity, heart disease, strokes, cancers, and diabetes. Fit Cities is a riveting memoir of that work--the story of how Dr. Lee and her many teams of brilliant collaborators uncovered, and set about eradicating, the causes of a pandemic of unhealthy living. And every step of the way, it offers invaluable advice on how we can all help ourselves to live healthier lives.

Download or read book Because They Endured We Are written by Robert Lewis and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-03 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These words were spoken by Marcus Tullius Cicero, a Roman philosopher, over two thousand years ago. What meanings do they carry over to the American people today? The United States of America has been called the melting pot of the world. A more accurate description, in my opinion, is a large jar of mixed marbles. The American citizen of African descent has been in America longer and has done more for America than most other ethnic groups. Yet we are attacked, lambasted, demonized, inhumanely abused, reviled, lied to, and lied about, more than all other ethnic groups combined. We have been subjugated to eating the guts of animals that the other ethnic groups throw away and the greens, roots, and dandelions that grew wild in the fields. This, along with being assailed with rules, regulations, laws, and practices are designed to keep us down and deprived. Yet, we continue to prevail. Today, as a people, we are at a crossroad in our lives. In order to make the best decisions for our prosperity, we must uncover our gloried past that was systematically kept from us. This will better enable us to better understand and answer the why questions of today, thereby being able to come up with more appropriate directions for our tomorrows. This is why I pause to write! Young people you are our hope. We cannot go forward without you. Search your past, share your stories (in writing), bring out the commonalities we share, and encourage each other with a singleness of purpose as you take us forward.

Download or read book The Race Is Not to the Swift written by Tu Jì Fun and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-11-14 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey in real time with Steve, a burned-out Protestant minister, as he babysits his daughter's classmate Adi. Between the crowing of the school bell bookending the day, spend six hours traveling with them on the written page (or make your way to Vancouver and follow along by foot) as they explore their neighborhood, experiencing both the quotidian and fantastic. By turns haunting and humorous, The race is not to the swift is an original novel: a moving meditation on the nature of time and memory, and a playful experiment in durational realism, each second in fictional time corresponding to a second in actual time. Tu Ji Fun pushes the boundaries of what fiction can be and do in this incredibly inventive debut novel.
