Historia
Leonardo da Vinci created the two most famous paintings in history, The Last Supper and the Mona Lisa. But in his own mind, he was just as much a man of science and engineering. With a passion that sometimes became obsessive, he pursued innovative studies of anatomy, fossils, birds, the heart, flying machines, botany, geology, and weaponry.

Historia
We human beings share 98 percent of our genes with chimpanzees. Yet humans are the dominant species on the planet - having founded civilizations and religions, developed intricate and diverse forms of communication, learned science, built cities, and created breathtaking works of art - while chimps remain animals concerned primarily with the basic necessities of survival. What is it about that two percent difference in DNA that has created such a divergence between evolutionary cousins?

Historia
Like countless other kids, Phil Gaimon grew up dreaming of being a professional athlete. But unlike countless other kids, he actually pulled it off. After years of amateur races, hard training, living out of a suitcase, and never taking "no" for an answer, he finally achieved his goal and signed a contract to race professionally on one of the best teams in the world. Now, Gaimon pulls back the curtain on the WorldTour, cycling's highest level.

Great Book Phil!
Revisado: 11-21-17
If you follow cycling, this is a great book. Phil gives your insights that we, as non tour riders, love. We love the secret peloton info. Ive watched every tour live since I was a child. im 44 now. ive seen 3 5-time tour winners live. I believed in their efforts. Now, I dont believe any of it. If you were in tour and clean you should be furious. Phil represents those riders. It's really disappointing that a clean rider cant make a living as a pro cyclist. The future of US cycling is over. Go to college.

Historia
Beloved German cyclist Jens Voigt isn't a superstar in the traditional sense of the word. Although he won three stages of the Tour de France - and wore the yellow jersey twice - Voigt never claimed an overall victory. He became a star because he embodies qualities that go beyond winning and losing: sacrifice, selflessness, reliability, and devotion. European and American crowds were drawn to his aggressive riding style, outgoing nature, and refreshing realness.

Historia
One hundred thousand years ago, at least six human species inhabited the Earth. Today there is just one. Us. Homo sapiens. How did our species succeed in the battle for dominance? Why did our foraging ancestors come together to create cities and kingdoms? How did we come to believe in gods, nations, and human rights; to trust money, books, and laws; and to be enslaved by bureaucracy, timetables, and consumerism?

Not worth the time
Revisado: 03-14-16
Ben puts in a big effort. but this book gives ideas that the common person isn't going to try because we don't have disposable income for gadgets that might or might not work. Ben simply is marketing an industry and tries to push the reader into buying ideas and products to build an industry. Pass on the book. all info is available free on Web youtube. he is just pushing his products too. He is trying to copy others Dave Asbrey Bulletproof by trying to create a market and capitalize on it. These guys are trying to sell stuff.

where is the data?
Revisado: 09-30-15
im on the last chapter and considering returning the book. I dont get it. The author quotes a couple studies that I will look up but that is it. He states that Wheat Belly is sensational and it is but WBelly arguments are more convincing. Tell me why I should eat gluten? Convinve me why I should eat gluten? Saying another guy lied doesnt say why I should eat it. There are better food choices period. The only arguement thst is presented is that items that are gluten free are more expensive. Tell me nutritionally why I should eat gluten? Too many better choices. Why right this book? Who funded it. Pass on this one.
update
I finished it. The fake diet he creates is good. The book doesnt offer anything new. we know about fat etc. I realize now that its the title of the book thst is misleading. it suggests that gluten and wheat are good and eat up. That isnt the case. I found on youtube various videos of the author. He admirs the title is from the publisher to sell more books. Sounds just like other authors. The video of the author on the Doctors show is good. Pass on this book. Pass on eating seeds of grasses as a main food source. Eat it like a candy or treat. it is. hot bread from the oven is a treat not a food group.
