Book excerpt: The novel Gathering Honey is a three-generational story that spans nearly fifty years of relationships among three strong and divergent female family members. Simon, the rebellious daughter of a strict and disciplined judge, loses the love of her life and must find a way to keep their expectant child. Her decision leads to anguish and heartache, but the child is born. That child, Claire, seeks her birth father and, in so doing, meets not only her family but also a man who will change her life forever. The child of that encounter, Nicki, becomes the catalyst for family reunion and a final love, not only for herself personally, but one that gives meaning to what it means to truly become family.

Book excerpt: Whether drizzled into our tea or spread atop our terms of endearment, there’s one thing that is always true about honey: it is sweet. As Lucy M. Long shows in this book, while honey is definitely the natural sweetener par excellence, it has a long history in our world as much more, serving in different settings as a food, tonic, medicine, and even preservative. It features in many religions as a sacred food of the gods. In this luscious history, she traces the uses and meanings of honey in myriad cultures throughout time. Long points to a crucial fact about honey: it can be enjoyed with very little human processing, which makes it one of the most natural foods we consume. Its nutritional qualities and flavors dramatically reflect the surroundings in which it is produced, and those who produce it—bees—are some of the most important insects in the world, the chief pollinators of wild plants and domesticated crops alike. Showing how honey has figured in politics, religion, economics, and popular culture, Long also directly explores its tastiest use—in our food and drink—offering a history of its culinary place in the world, one sweetened with an assortment of delicious recipes. Lively and engaged, her account will give even the saltiest of us an insatiable sweet tooth.

Book excerpt: Honey A vital understanding of the health effects of this renowned natural food Honey is among the most famous and widely available natural food products in the world, and its flavor profiles are well understood. Despite its use as a natural remedy by many societies, however, there has until recently been no systematic attempt to assess the scientific basis for claims about honey’s health benefits. The ubiquity of honey and honey-derived natural remedies make such an assessment highly desirable. Honey: Composition and Health Benefits offers a systematic assessment for the first time, analyzing the substances that make up honey and their health effects, both separately and in combination. Dedicating full chapters to each of honey’s constituent materials, this book provides the first full-length and comprehensive treatment of this natural food. It also includes content on other honey products such as royal jelly, propolis, and bee venom. It promises to shed scientific light on centuries of tradition. Honey readers will also find: Detailed treatment of honey’s constituent carbohydrates, amino acids, organic acids, and more Closing chapters dealing with contaminants and toxins found in honey A vast and distinguished team of global contributors with decades of expertise Honey promises to be essential for food scientists, nutritionists, and health scientists, both in academic research and in industry.
