During his more than 30 years as a vascular surgeon, Richard Furman literally held clogged arteries and diseased hearts in his hands and wondered why the person lying on the table hadn't been more careful. Heart disease is the number one killer of men and women in America, and in most cases it is completely preventable. So why are we slowly destroying our bodies and killing ourselves? And what can we do to turn it around?

Some Good Bits of Knowledge but Missing Key Things
Revisado: 05-13-23
Overall this book has a great message and will help to motivate you to make positive changes in your life. However, it's important to note that the author is a Doctor and not a nutritionist or dietician. He even alludes to this fact early in the book. Some of the information is outdated; more recent studies have come out with conclusions that somewhatdisagree with some of the points in the book - especially with regard to diet. For example, a Keto or low-carb diet is not discussed or mentioned as a healthy alternative even though numerous studies point to the benefits of a low-carb diet. Indeed a keto diet high in fiber and vegetables can be quite healthy. I was also surprised to learn that the author did not mention the importance of getting enough sleep as part of a healthy lifestyle. This was not mentioned even once. Most experts agree that good sleep is the foundation that makes living a healthy lifestyle possible. Lack of sleep increases hunger hormones, reduces cognitive abilities, and makes exercising more difficult. Still though, the book was worth the listen and I did learn a few important things about specific disease prevention.

Paradoxes: Guiding Forces in Mathematical Exploration provides a survey of mathematical paradoxes spanning a wide variety of topics; delving into each paradox mathematically, philosophically, and historically. Listeners will gain a full picture of how paradoxes have contributed to and guided the progress of mathematics in many ways. Paradoxes also provides the listener with a robust argument for the inclusion of paradoxes in education.

A Great Explanatory Story of Paradoxes
Revisado: 01-16-21
I found this book both interesting and thought-provoking. I expected to listen to a list of paradoxes with explanations; however, what is contained in this book is much better than that. The author writes in a way that presents many paradoxes in a historically based story format. This makes the content entertaining, fascinating, and educational at the same time. The flow of the book is logical and I found myself making a concerted effort to find time to hear the next part of the story. The author concludes that mathematical paradoxes have made significant impacts on society in the fields of mathematics, physics, and computer science. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in math and higher-level thinking.
