Until Dr. Barnard’s scientific breakthrough, most health professionals believed that once you developed diabetes, you were stuck with itâand could anticipate one complication after another, from worsening eyesight and nerve symptoms to heart and kidney problems. But as this groundbreaking work reveals, this simply is not true. In a series of studiesâthe most recent funded by the National Institutes of HealthâDr. Barnard has shown that it is possible to repair insulin function and reverse type 2 diabetes. By following his scientifically proven, life-changing program, diabetics can control blood sugar three times more effectively than with the standard diet; and cut back on and in some cases eliminate medications while reducing the risk of diabetes complications. "The long overdue epic scientific breakthrough in diabetes is hereâ¦an obvious must-read for health professionals and for diabetic and potential diabetic patients." âCaldwell B. Esselstyn, Jr., MD, preventive cardiology consultant, Cleveland Clinic "This is the approach to followâ¦the clinically proven way to get your blood sugar under control⦠and start living again."âJohn McDougall, MD, founder and medical director of the McDougall program "Dr. Barnard’s book is no exaggerationâ¦The signs and symptoms of diabetes can be reversed, and he’s got the evidence to prove it."âJennie Brand-Miller, PhD, author of The New Glucose Revolution
This book breaks new ground by doing something for digital photographers that’s never been done beforeâit cuts through the bull and shows you exactly “how to do it.” It’s not a bunch of theory; it doesn’t challenge you to come up with your own settings or figure things out on your own. Instead, it does something that virtually no other Elements book has ever doneâit tells you flat-out which settings to use, when to use them, and why. If you’re looking for one of those “tell-me-everything-about-the-Unsharp-Mask-filter” books, this isn’t it. You can grab any other Elements book on the shelf, because they all do that. Instead, this book gives you the inside tips and tricks of the trade for organizing, correcting, editing, sharpening, retouching, and printing your photos like a pro. You’ll be absolutely amazed at how easy and effective these techniques areâonce you know the secrets.LEARN HOW THE PROS DO ITEach year we train thousands of digital photographers and, almost without exception, they have the same questions and face the same problemsâthat’s exactly what we cover in this book.You’ll learn: The real secrets of how the pros retouch portraitsHow to color correct any photo without breaking a sweat (you’ll be amazed at how the pros do it!)How to use Camera Raw for processing not only RAW photos, but JPEGs and TIFFs, too! (And you’ll learn why so many pros like it bestâbecause it’s faster and easier)The sharpening techniques the pros really use (there’s an entire chapter just on this!)How to deal with common digital camera image problems, including removing noise and avoiding halosThe most requested photographic special effects, and much more! THE BOOK’S SECRET WEAPONAlthough Elements 10 offers some digital photography features that Photoshop CS5 doesn’t offer, there are plenty of features that Photoshop CS5 has that Elements 10 still doesn’t have (things like paths, Channel Mixer, etc.). But in this book, you’ll learn some slick workarounds, cheats, and some fairly ingenious ways to replicate many of those Photoshop features from right within Elements. Plus, since this book is designed for photographers, it doesn’t waste your time talking about how to frame a shot, set your exposure, etc., and there’s no talk about which camera or printer to buy. It’s all Elements, step by step, cover to cover, in the only book of its kind, and you’re gonna love it!
