Book excerpt: We praise those people who do things for others. But the symbolic power of giving means individuals can take advantage of the glow of 'goodness' that charity provides. This book analyses the reality of how charity operates in the social world; how the personal benefits of giving and volunteering are vital for getting charitable acts to happen; how the altruism associated with gifts isn't always what it seems; how charity misbehaviour or bad management gets overlooked; and how charity symbols are weaponised against those who don't participate. Drawing on original data and a novel application of the sociology of Bourdieu, this book examines a wide range of examples from culture, politics and society to provide an entertaining critique of how contemporary charity works.

Book excerpt: Wes Anderson's Fantastic Mr. Fox meets Richard Scarry's Best Word Book Ever in this stylish picture book about a quest for a rare and mysterious plant. Fox loves nature. There's nothing he enjoys more than reading about and picking flowers. One evening, he comes across a rare specimen in his old botany book -- the golden glow, a plant from the Wellhidden family, found only in the mountains . . . a plant that has yet to be described. Fascinated, Fox decides to set off on a quest in search of the mysterious golden glow. He packs his knapsack, a map, a compass, a flashlight, a sleeping bag and other items for his hike. Along the way, Fox observes many different kinds of trees and plants. He also encounters woodland friends who help him make it to the summit of the mountain. But when Fox eventually stumbles upon the object of his quest, he makes a surprising decision. With spreads of educational content interspersed throughout, The Golden Glow is a charming story that details the simple pleasures of a nature hike and celebrates observing the beauty of nature.

Book excerpt: Get Your Glow On With Skin-Loving Foods & Homemade Products Improve your skin the way nature intended—with real, fresh ingredients! Nutritional Therapist Nadia Neumann completely transformed her skin by making simple switches to a nourishing, real food diet and natural skincare routine. In Glow, Nadia walks you through the steps to naturally clear, radiant skin from the inside out. Learn the ways that issues inside your body—like inflammation you may not even notice—manifest themselves on your skin as acne, dryness or eczema. On the flip side, get the deets on how common skincare products and routines—like washing your face with harsh cleansers twice a day—can actually make these skin troubles worse. It’s science, but Nadia’s fun and friendly writing makes these issues easy to understand and fix for good. She’ll even spark your creativity in the kitchen with fabulous recipes like glow-getting smoothies, easy lunches and skin-nourishing dinners. Not to mention plenty of fun and unique DIY skincare products like masks, toners, eye creams and face oil blends. Packed with Nadia’s stunning photography, no other book will both inform and inspire you like this. Everybody—both young and old—has naturally gorgeous skin just waiting to be revealed; with this book, you will finally get your glow for life. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 13.0px 0.0px; font: 32.0px 'Times New Roman'} p.p2 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 13.0px 0.0px; font: 11.0px 'Times New Roman'} span.s1 {font: 60.0px 'Times New Roman'} span.s2 {font: 40.0px 'Times New Roman'}
