Story
It’s no secret that the world is full of misinformation, from schools that teach outdated information to misinformed—but well-meaning—friends and family. Even the influencers are swearing by specific diets, products, and magical diets that promise to help you shed weight instantly. It’s no wonder most people have no idea where to start when it comes to eating better. Hungry for Truth takes a different approach. Author Tatiana Keay is on a mission to expose nutrition misinformation, dispel common inaccurate beliefs, and provide evidence-based nutritional truths.

Your thoughts probably jump to the latest fad that celebrities are raving about or your own experiences with diets that felt restrictive and unrealistic. But at its core, a diet is very different from dieting. One encompasses the foods that you eat, while the other tries to control those foods.

At the end of the 1980s, when the Cold War ended, many, including former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, believed that democracy had triumphed politically once and for all. Yet nearly 30 years later, the direction of history no longer seems certain. A repressive and destructive force has begun to reemerge on the global stage - sweeping across Europe, parts of Asia, and the United States - that to Albright, looks very much like fascism.

For more than 20 years since his New York Times best seller Don't Know Much About History first appeared, Davis has shown that Americans don't hate history, just the dull version dished out in school. Now Davis turns his attention to what is arguably the most important and most fascinating subject in American history: our presidents. From the heated debates over executive powers through the curious election of George Washington in 1789 and, for more than 200 years, up through the meteoric rise of Barack Obama, the presidency has been at the heart of American history.
