      The relationship between vitamin C and health is controversial. Double Nobel Prize winner, Linus Pauling, argued that ascorbate could prevent or cure heart disease, stroke, cancer and infections. Conventional experts disagreed, disparaging supplements in favour of fruits and vegetables. This book presents a new model, describing the action of vitamin C in health and disease. It demonstrates conclusively that the establishment has misinterpreted the evidence, potentially resulting in epidemic levels of avoidable disease. The dynamic flow model explains the current results and points the way for future experiments. Vitamin C supplementation could eradicate many diseases. In pharmacological doses, it could cure the major killers of the industrialised world. Failure to test these ideas may condemn countless people to chronic illness and premature death.

      Leo Tolstoy's interpretation of the Sermon on the Mount is explored through a sympathetic lens, highlighting his radical approach to living out Jesus's teachings. Despite being overshadowed by figures like Gandhi, Tolstoy's religious and philosophical insights remain largely unrecognized. Steve Hickey argues for a reevaluation of Tolstoy's contributions, advocating for a new vocabulary to better articulate the political and social dimensions of his Christian thought. This work aims to foster deeper understanding and appreciation of Tolstoy's lived theology.
