Weight loss isn’t a race. It isn’t one size fits all. Everyone wants fast results, but when it comes to losing weight with crash diets, what goes down nearly always comes back up. And weight-loss programs designed to fit “everyone” are often too broad and restrictive to fit into the complicated lives of real people.
Drawing on twenty years of experience, Dr. Rangan Chatterjee-BBC personality and author of the bestselling Feel Better in 5-has created a conscious, compassionate, sustainable approach to weight loss that goes far beyond fad diets to find the individual strategies that will work for you.
Packed with quick and easy interventions, this book will help you
• Understand the effects of what, why, when, where and how we eat
• Discover the root cause of your weight gain
• Nourish your body to lose weight without crash diets or grueling workouts
• Build a toolbox of techniques to help you weigh less while living more
Feel Great, Lose Weight is a new way to look at weight loss-a 360-degree view that goes beyond calories to see the bigger picture, including not just physical but also mental and environmental factors. With Dr. Chatterjee’s guidance and encouragement, you’ll turn simple and sustainable lifestyle changes into a more energized, confident, and healthier you.

The Routledge Handbook of International Criminology brings together the latest thinking and findings from a diverse group of both senior and promising young scholars from around the globe. This collaborative project articulates a new way of thinking about criminology that extends existing perspectives in understanding crime and social control across borders, jurisdictions, and cultures, and facilitates the development of an overarching framework that is truly international.
The book is divided into three parts, in which three distinct yet overlapping types of crime are analyzed: international crime, transnational crime, and national crime. Each of these perspectives is then articulated through a number of chapters which cover theory and methods, international and transnational crime analyses, and case studies of criminology and criminal justice in relevant nations. In addition, questions placed at the end of each chapter encourage greater reflection on the issues raised, and will encourage young scholars to move the field of inquiry forward.
This handbook is an excellent reference tool for undergraduate and graduate students with particular interests in research methods, international criminology, and making comparisons across countries.

This is a long overdue portrayal of the horrendous atrocities committed by the Japanese Imperial Army and is highly recommended to anyone with an interest in historical truth. It is honest, relentlessly horrifying… This amazing film is, by turns, deeply disturbing, affecting and beautifully shot. Warning: This film contains graphic portrayal of the atrocities of war. Viewer discretion is advised.
Nanjing, China 1937. Japanese forces invade this once-capital of the Republic of China on December 9th. Throughout the following six weeks, soldiers raped thousands of women and annihilated hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians with mass executions; crowds mown down by firing squads, and victims digging their own graves. Few events carry the ugly and sickening connotations of what has become known as the Rape of Nanking . Director Lu Chuan tells the horrifying story through several figures, including a conscience-stricken Japanese soldier and John Rabe, a Nazi businessman who would ultimately save thousands of Chinese civilians lives.
