The groundbreaking Good Fat Diet reveals the shocking misconceptions about fat in our diet.

Coconut is the new grapefruit, advocated by health writers such as Amelia Freer, Joe Wicks and Ella Woodward.

Based on more than two decades of research by world-renowned biochemist Dr Mary Enig, The Good Fat Diet flouts conventional wisdom by asserting that so-called 'healthy' vegetable oils are a major cause of obesity, while the saturated fats traditionally considered harmful (such as those found in coconut oil and butter) are, in fact, essential to weight loss and health.

This book with debunk myths about fats, and give you recipes and resources to help you develop a healthy diet - which doesn't depend on deprivation.

Picking up where Atkins left off, this good news diet uses coconut to kickstart a healthy diet, one that will raise metabolism, eliminate cravings and boost energy.

—— Susan Cain, author of Quiet

Why do ghosts wear clothes? This is just one of a number of interesting questions raised by this jaunty book ... In a series of short, snappy chapters, Clarke examines the evidence for just about every ghost who ever drew, or withdrew, breath ... but A Natural History of Ghosts is also haunted by another story, lurking not very far beneath: the story of the author's childhood need to believe in ghosts, and the gradual erosion of that belief

—— Craig Brown , Daily Mail

A gripping history that traces the scientific and social aspects of ghostly sightings

—— Telegraph

Compelling ... Research into the paranormal necessarily involves a fair degree of debunking, and Clarke is careful to be sceptical. The narrative of ghost-hunting is simultaneously a history and exposure of fraud and popular delusion ... [yet] Clarke retains a boyish and ... well-informed enthusiasm for his subject

—— Independent

[A] voyage through the half-lit world of lost souls ... tales told with ghoulish relish
