More and more people are getting on their bikes and discovering what city cycling's all about. It may be cycling to work, it may be cycling to get your groceries and other stuff, or it may be cycling for fun - going out to meet friends and socialize. You don't need to be a hardened, experienced cyclist to use your bike in the city. But you might feel like you could use a little help and guidance, and that's what this book is all about. First up is a point-by-point look at the pros and cons of cycling in the city (with the emphasis very much on the positive, as you'd expect, but not ignoring the less appealing stuff). Next comes a comprehensive guide to what you'll need and where to get it - types of bike, their components and the extras they may have, accessories, clothing and more - along with sound advice on what you really need and what you can get along just fine without. The next section provides you with all the help you'll need to get the most out of your bike and the whole city cycling experience. After that, there's a few thoughts on where your pedals might take you once you've got past the first few turns; things you might like to do to get even more out of cycling. Last but not least, there's a glossary of the terms used, which you can use as a reference when you're reading the book - and which will help you know what they're talking about at the cycle store! The author is a true veteran of city cycling, with over twenty years experience of riding bikes in various large, busy cities. The Urban Cycling Handbook gives you the benefit of all this experience, printed in full color and written in an easy-to-read style.

Many of us find it almost impossible to resist certain types of food - it could be a burger, fries, candy, pizza, ice cream, but whatever it is we just can't say no to it. It doesn't even matter if we're hungry - we want to eat it anyhow. And as a result, we eat too much, too often - and so we end up overweight. If this sounds like you, what can you do about it? You've probably tried dieting - many try and few succeed. You want to lose weight, but weight loss isn't easy to do. You need to stop overeating, you need to take back control of your appetite. You know all this already, deep down - but how can you do it? Lose Weight, Stop Overeating has the answers you need. First, it explains in straight language why it is that you find certain foods so hard to resist - what happens to you and why it does. Once you understand this, you'll have a fighting chance of losing that excess weight. Next up, there's a chapter letting you know just what you need to do. It's all about getting rid of old, bad habits - and learning new ones to replace them. Follow this advice and you'll be well on the way to where you want to be! To make sure you can get there, the last chapter tells you how to do it. This is all about getting yourself right mentally - overweight may be a physical problem, but the roots are all in the mind. Lose Weight, Stop Overeating is not a diet book. It's about changing your eating habits, but this is a long-term thing, not some fad that will last for a few weeks or months and leave you right back where you started, or a 'magic bullet' system which promises plenty but delivers very little. Nor does it pretend that you can do all of this with minimum effort. Instead, it points you in the right direction to get where you want to be - slimmer, healthier, happier. Lose weight, stop overeating! Take control of your appetite, take control of your life! You'll be glad you did.
