New science has revealed low-level, smoldering inflammation, simmering quietly and undetected, behind everything from heart disease and cancer to mysterious autoimmune conditions. Hidden inflammation even weakens our immunity and increases the likelihood that our immune system will mount an overwhelming, inappropriate attack against infections. In this story of scientific discovery by a doctor at the forefront of this field, A Silent Fire brings together the science of immunology, nutrition and the microbiome to explain what we know of this elusive phenomenon.

What if everything we thought we knew about being 'fat' was wrong? What if being overweight or obese was really a symptom of your body’s response to a chronic underlying health condition? Stephen Perrine is here to tell you that it is, and that condition is inflammation. The majority of weight-loss programmes are trying to cure the symptom.

A fascinating account of the world’s most famous disease - polio - told as you have never heard it before. Epidemics of paralysis began to rage in the early 1900s, seemingly out of nowhere. Doctors, parents, and health officials were at a loss to explain why this formerly unheard-of disease began paralyzing so many children. Why did this disease start to become such a horrible problem during the late 1800s? Why did it affect children more often than adults? Why was it originally called teething paralysis by mothers and their doctors?

In the late 1800s, a new disease arrived in North America from Europe and began to claim the lives of children everywhere. Though most today have never even heard of this illness, it would routinely kill over 10,000 children in a single year - more than the polio might take in an entire decade. After much trial and tribulation, a shot was developed that helped both those already afflicted with the illness, and those who might one day become infected. But the shot was dangerous, and many parents refused it for their children.

Why do babies have lopsided smiles? Why are so many people's eyes misaligned? What started as a simple search to understand this phenomenon turned into a two-year quest that uncovered hidden links between our crooked faces and some of the most puzzling diseases of our time. Crooked methodically goes through the most recent scientific research and connects the dots from the outbreak of metallic medicine in 1800s England to the eruption of neurological and autoimmune disorders so many are suffering from today.

Why are more parents choosing natural immunity for their children? When I first heard that people were purposefully not vaccinating their children, I was shocked.

I was a lucky child. Not only did I grow up in a loving family in the beautiful countryside of France, but my parents also had a large fireplace. That fireplace was one of the cornerstones of our family. Every year, for one or two months, my family and I would reunite every evening around the fireplace. My father would grill chestnuts in the fire, and I would stand there fascinated, watching the flames roam free, hearing the log crackle and turn red. Whether you want to meditate, study, relax, or fall asleep, it’s the perfect sound to feel calm, safe, and protected.
