Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States spends more per capita on health care than any other nation in the world--this despite a failure to guarantee universal coverage (even after Obama's reforms finally go into effect) and an infant mortality rate higher than that of most other advanced nations. Who has insurance, who doesn't; who has access to quality medical attention, who has to wait until a situation merits a panicked trip to the emergency room; who can fill their prescriptions without blinking, and who has to sometimes choose between pills and food: the discrepancies and inequalities when it comes to access to health care are stark. Among the poorer countries of the globe, of course, things are infinitely more devastating, from the food shortages that follow natural disasters to the continuing epidemic of HIV, which affects enormous swaths of entire countries' populations. It's often too vast, too overwhelming, too depressing, for the significance of such issues to be easily grasped, let alone adequately comprehended. The Little Book of Shocking Health Facts follows in the footsteps of its Shocking Facts predecessors--which treated such hot-button topics as food, the economy and the environment--by presenting a series of indelible, hard-hitting infographics that render in bold, unapologetic visual form some of the most telling realities of the trouble with being sick and the business of getting well.

Book excerpt: The commercial pet food industry has a secret to hide -- and Ann Martin wants to make sure you know it. Her research reveals some startling facts: that the pet food industry conducts animal testing in order to improve their product, and includes euthanized cats and dogs in the mix to heighten protein content. In this revised and updated edition, Martin continues to explore the shocking processes by which commercial pet foods are produced. She offers alternative recipes for feeding pets, nutritional advice, and an exploration of "Pet Peeves," in which she explores several scams aimed at pet owners. This groundbreaking book gives us a glimpse into exactly what we are doing when we buy pet food.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We've been living in a post-meltdown economic universe for long enough that we've grown accustomed to gloomy statistics and dire assessments. Perhaps we've even become a little inured to the nonstop parades of dour numbers and doom-filled words. The Little Book of Shocking Money Factspresents a passionate, uncompromising corrective to this situation, employing bold graphic design and strikingly original illustrations to make visible for readers some of the more difficult and, yes, shocking realities of our contemporary economic scene. The book's editor, Emma Lunn, is a highly respected British journalist specializing in personal finance and a regular contributor to a number of newspapers, including The Timesand The Sunday Telegraph. Featuring the same style of hard-hitting visuals and well-researched information that characterized the earlier books in this series--The Little Book of Shocking Eco Facts, The Little Book of Shocking Food Factsand The Little Book of Shocking Global Facts--this new volume trains an unblinking eye on the inconvenient truths about money today.
