Live Better, Live Longer

live-better-live-longerDr. Edward G. Lakatta brings his outstanding wealth of knowledge, as director of cardiovascular research with the U.S. National Institute of Aging, to show you how you can increase your opportunity for a better and longer life by combating the perils of the leading cause of death. Heart disease and stroke cause some 30 percent of all North American deaths every year—and the risks increase sharply as we age.

Adapted from the most widely-viewed series of web articles on cardiovascular health, Live Better, Live Longer, is the outstanding work on this topic for non-experts.

In vivid and graphic terms that make a complex subject amazingly clear and comprehensive, you will learn:

  • How your vast and intricate cardiovascular system works.
  • Why the risks of heart disease and stroke increase as we age.
  • How to make your own personal risks assessment.
  • How to maintain or improve your cardiovascular health and your opportunity for a healthier, better, longer life.

Read the fascinating story of how Canada created the global petroleum industry, Canada’s role in the world of oil today, and 21st century energy challenges in the era of global warming.

Read how Abraham Gesner of Nova Scotia, the father of the modern petroleum industry, laid the foundation with his development of kerosene. Also called coal oil because it was first made from coal, for half a century kerosene was the principal fuel for the lamps of the world, and now powers today’s jet aircraft.

Out of Print, but Not Out of Luck

The sad reality is that almost all published books are "out-of-print" within two years of publication.

But there are great digital networks linking thousands of used book dealers across Canada, the United States, and Britain. You can purchase used copies of my out-of-print books, or almost any out-of-print books, from any of these services.

I generally use Advanced Book Exchange, a Canadian firm based in Victoria, to buy used books. Visit www.abebooks.com. Two other services are www.bookfinder.com and www.albris.com.
