...an intelligent take-down, but funny tooThe TimesPeloton. Pilates. Biohacking. Colonics. Ashwagandha.

She traces the history of how the beauty and fashion industries have peddled snake oil to women for decades, and why we keep coming back for more.

Grief, joy and spilled rum at the worlds death festivalsBy the time Erica Buists father-in-law Chris was discovered, upstairs in his bed, his book resting on his chest, he had been dead for over a week. Erica searched for answers (the artery-clogging cheeses in his fridge?) and tried to reason with herself (does daughter-in-law even feature in the grief hierarchy?) and eventually landed on an inevitable, uncomfortable truth: everybody dies.With Mexicos Day of the Dead festivities as a starting point, she decided to confront death head on by visiting seven death festivals around the world one for every day they didnt find Chris. From Mexico to Nepal, Sicily, Thailand, Madagascar, Japan and finally Indonesia with a stopover in New Orleans, where the dead outnumber the living ten to one Erica searched for the answers to both fundamental and unexpected questions around death anxiety.This Partys Dead is the account of her journey to understand how other cultures deal with mortal terror, how they move past the knowledge that theyre going to die in order to live happily day-to-day, how they celebrate rather than shy away from the topic of death and how when this openness and acceptance are passed down through the generations, death suddenly doesnt seem so scary after all.

It was a summer day in 1861, when I boarded a west-bound stage-coach in Omaha, Nebraska, at the end of my resources and the end of my rope.I put back in my pocket the newspaper clipping which had been responsible for giving me inspiration at a time when I needed it most. At twenty-four years, everything I had tried had somehow failed to hold me. I had long been in doubt whether or not there was anything really in me.My father wanted me to try law, so I went to Harvard for a year, then gave that up. Then I tried medicine for a year. No good. I had interest in medicine, but I could not stay indoors and study. Those two frustrated years, however, revealed to me what was the matter. The ambition of my parents and relatives to put me in a profession or if not that, into business, had influenced me against what I really wanted.
