The De Vany Diet
"This title presents the simple way to lose weight, look younger and feel healthier - without restricting calories or excessive exercising. The De Vany Diet is Professor Arthur De Vany's astonishing lifestyle programme. Based on his decades-long study of weight, diet and health, it looks to our ancestors' lifestyle of eating a lot and moving a little. With fascinating insight and research, De Vany overturns our current guilt-ridden approach to diet and exercise, proving that we can lose pounds, look younger, beat diabetes and prevent heart disease simply by living on meat, fruit and vegetables, and embarking on only brief, intense periods of exercise. He then offers a clear plan, complete with menu ideas and exercise suggestions, so that you too can: shed pounds in a matter of weeks; say goodbye to endless exercise; feel more energized; give up command-and-control diets for good; look younger and prevent premature ageing; increase your sex drive; and, achieve optimum health."--Publisher's description.

Handbook of the Economics of Art and Culture
Over the last 30 or 40 years a substantial literature has grown up in which the tools of economic theory and analysis have been applied to problems in the arts and culture. Economists who have surveyed the field generally locate the origins of contemporary cultural economics as being in 1966, the year of publication of the first major work in modern times dedicated specifically to the economics of the arts. It was a book by Baumol and Bowen which showed that economic analysis could illuminate the supply of and demand for artistic services, the contribution of the arts sector to the economy, and the role of public policy.
