Author of Home & Dry in Normandy George East is a self-confessed serial French property restorer and francophile...and has made every mistake in the books he has written about buying and restoring property and living in France. After countless articles, blogs and lectures, George has finally compressed half a lifetime's experiences of French adventuring into this single publication. If you are even thinking about thinking about buying a home in France or moving there to live, we think you'll find it essential reading. And by the way, it's also a jolly good read...A former journalist and magazine editor, George receives requests for advice about buying property and living in France from hundreds of Britons every year, and writes regularly for French Property News.

Now he's been and gone and done it!After half a century or so, George East has finally got to grips with an issue which has bemused, infuriated and fascinated men since Adam and Eve had their first falling-out. Why do women think and act as they do? In the latest in the Naked Truth series, THE NAKED TRUTH ABOUT WOMEN treads in dangerous territory as the author tries to answer eternal questions like:Why do women always ask their man for an opinion of how a dress looks - and then ignore what he says?Why do they painstakingly inspect and try on dozens of shoes/dresses/handbags - and then buy the first one they looked at?Why do women say that love is more important than money, then judge how much a man loves her by the price of the engagement ring he buys her?Every Man should have this to present to his partner. Or just to read and chuckle to himself in a corner.We blokes will probably never figure women out, but it is a part of the male psyche to try and explain the inexplicable. That's why men do all the inventing and clever stuff while the women lie around and get in touch with their feelings.A Note from the Editor:Whether you are a far-out feminist, a manly misogynist a manic misandrist or strictly neutral, please join the fray by letting us and Amazon customers know exactly what you think of The Naked Truth About Women by leaving a review when you have read this book. And if you are female, please also let us know what annoys you about typical male behaviour and attitudes. We need the ammunition for the next book in the Naked Truth series, which will be all about the male of the species!

All you need to know about losing weight - and NOT finding it again! Did you know that desperate dieters once swallowed tape worms to ensure they lost weight? Did you know that the first diet book came out in 1558, or that Victorian diet pills and potions often contained deadly arsenic and strychnine as they were supposed to speed up the metabolism and burn fat faster? Nowadays we are just as whacky when it comes to dieting, as some people believe that eating baby food or even stapling your ears will help you lose weight. As well as all sorts of statistics and fascinating facts about how we try to lose weight and keep it off, The Naked Truth about Dieting also lists, explains, compares and `road tests' dozens of famous and little-known diets from around the world. At the end of an absorbing voyage, the book comes to a conclusion about dieting which may shock many readers who have tried everything to get slimmer...
