W. Timothy Gallwey (born 1938 in San Francisco) is an author who has written a series of books in which he has set forth a methodology for coaching and the development of personal and professional excellence in various fields that he calls "the Inner Game." Since he began writing in the 1970s, his books include The Inner Game of Tennis, The Inner Game of Golf, The Inner Game of Music (with Barry Green), Inner Skiing, and The Inner Game of Work.&nbsp;
Gallwey's seminal work is The Inner Game of Tennis, with over one million copies in print. Besides sports, his training methods have been applied to the fields of business, health, and education. In 1960, Gallwey was captain of the Harvard University Tennis Team. In the 1970s, he learned meditation techniques which Gallwey said enhanced his powers of concentration in a manner that improved his game.
The "inner game" is based upon certain principles in which an individual uses non-judgmental observations of critical variables with the purpose of being accurate about these observations. If the observations are accurate, the person's body will adjust and correct automatically to achieve the best performance. Gallwey was one of the first to demonstrate a comprehensive method of coaching that could be applied to many situations. He lectured more often to business leaders in the U.S. than sports people.

Paul Pitchford studied and apprenticed with masters of pre-Revolutionary* Traditional Chinese medicine, nutrition, and Tai Ji and Chan (Zen) meditation. His landmark book, Healing with Whole Foods: Asian Traditions and Modern Nutrition (North Atlantic Books, soon to be available in 7 languages, including Chinese), forms the foundation of his unique dietary teachings, which unify Eastern and Western therapies.
His work has become a primary impetus behind the most fundamental, clinically effective, and innovative dietary movement today, widely known as whole foods nutrition. He sees a universal shift to whole foods nutrition as essential for overcoming ecologic ravages to the Earth as well as quelling pervasive disease and degeneration among her people.
Paul has been teaching nutrition in the context of foundational healing for several decades. This approach prioritizes three basic integrative steps in a persons pathway to enduring health: a) awareness practices, b) mindful movement including yoga, Tai Ji and Qi Gong, and c) nutrition based on regional, unrefined (whole) foods.&nbsp;
He receives invitations to teach worldwide and currently resides in the Denver, Colorado, area. Teachings developed prior to the Chinese Cultural Revolution incorporate an abundance of ancient methods and traditional values.

Timothy David Noakes (born 1949) is a South African scientist and an emeritus professor in the Division of Exercise Science and Sports Medicine at the University of Cape Town. He has run more than 70 marathons and ultramarathons and is the author of several books on exercise and diet. He is known for his work in sports science and for his support of a low-carbohydrate, high-fat (LCHF, Banting) diet, as set out in his books The Real Meal Revolution and Lore of Nutrition: Challenging Conventional Dietary Beliefs.
Noakes was born in Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia (today Harare, Zimbabwe), in 1949 and moved to South Africa at the age of five. His father had arrived in what was then Southern Rhodesia in 1946, establishing a successful tobacco exporting company that he sold in 1954. As a young boy, his main sporting interest was cricket. Noakes attended boarding school at Monterey Preparatory School in Constantia, Cape Town.
One year was spent as a foreign exchange student at Huntington Park High School in Huntington Park, California. Diocesan College followed prep school. He has earned an MBChB (1974), MD (1981), and DSc (Med) (2002). In 1980 Noakes was tasked to start a sports science course at the University of Cape Town. Noakes went on to head the Medical Research Council-funded Bioenergetics of Exercise Research Unit, which was later changed to the MRC/UCT Research Unit for Exercise Science and Sports Medicine.
In the early 1990s, Noakes co-founded the Sports Science Institute of South Africa with former South African rugby player Morne du Plessis. He is a leading researcher on the condition now known as exercise-associated hyponatremia (EAH). He first recognized this condition in a female runner during the 1984 Comrades Marathon and published his findings in 1985 in the journal Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise. Noakes hosted the 1st International Exercise-Associated Hyponatremia Consensus Development Conference in Cape Town in May 2005.
In 1996 Noakes published his theory of the "central governor." The theory proposed that fatigue is a "protective emotion" rather than a physiological state. In 2005 he undertook a series of experiments in the Arctic and Antarctic on South African (British-born) swimmer Lewis Gordon Pugh to understand the human capability in extreme cold. He discovered that Pugh had the ability to raise his core body temperature before entering the water in anticipation of the cold and coined the phrase 'anticipatory thermogenesis to describe it. In 2007, Noakes was the expedition doctor for Pugh's one-kilometer swim at the Geographic North Pole.

Steven Gundry is a cum laude graduate of Yale University with special honors in Human Biological and Social Evolution. After graduating from Alpha Omega Alpha from the Medical College of Georgia School of Medicine, Dr. Steven Gundry completed residencies in General Surgery and Thoracic Surgery at the University of Michigan. He served as a Clinical Associate at the National Institutes of Health for years.&nbsp;
There, he invented devices that reverse the cell death seen in acute heart attacks; variations of these devices subsequently became the Gundry™ Retrograde Cardioplegia Cannula. It has become the world's most widely used device of its kind to protect the heart from damage during open-heart surgery.&nbsp;
After completing a fellowship in congenital heart surgery at The Hospital for Sick Children, Great Ormond Street, in London, Dr. Gundry was recruited as Professor and Chairman of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Loma Linda University Medical Center. He and his partner, Leonard Bailey, pioneered infant and pediatric heart transplantation there. Together, they have performed more such transplants than any other transplant surgeon in the world.&nbsp;
During his tenure at Loma Linda, Dr. Gundry pioneered the field of xenotransplantation, the study of how the genes of one species react to the transplanted heart of a foreign species. He was one of the original twenty investigators of the first FDA-approved implantable left ventricular assist device (a kind of artificial heart).&nbsp;
Dr. Gundry is also the inventor of the Gundry Ministernomy, the widely used minimally invasive approach to aortic- or mitral-valve repair, the Gundry Lateral Tunnel, a "living" tissue that can rebuild parts of the heart in children with severe congenital heart malformations; and the Skoosh™ venous cannula, the most widely used cannula in minimally invasive heart operations.&nbsp;
One of the fathers of robotic surgery, and a consultant to Computer Motion (now Intuitive Surgical), Dr. Steven Gundry, received early FDA approval to use robotic-assisted minimally invasive surgery for coronary artery-bypass and mitral-valve operations. He holds patents on devices for connecting blood vessels, and coronary artery bypasses without sutures and repairing the mitral valve without the need for sutures or a heart-lung machine.&nbsp;
He has served on the Board of Directors of the American Society of Artificial Internal Organs (ASIAO) and was a founding board member and treasurer of the International Society of Minimally Invasive Cardiothoracic Surgery (ISMICS). He recently completed two successive elected terms as President of the American Heart Association, Desert Division Board of Directors.&nbsp;
Dr. Gundry has been elected a Fellow of the American College of Surgeons, the American College of Cardiology, the American Surgical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and the College of Chest Physicians. He is a member of numerous other surgical and medical societies. As a medical researcher, Dr. Gundry has published three hundred articles, chapters, and abstracts in peer-reviewed journals on surgical, immunology, genetics, nutrition, plant-based diets, and lipid investigations.&nbsp;

Jonathan Gottschall (born September 20, 1972) is an American literary scholar specializing in literature and evolution. He holds the title of Research Fellow in the English department of Washington &amp; Jefferson College in Pennsylvania. He is the author or editor of seven books. He completed graduate work in English at the State University of New York at Binghamton, where he worked under David Sloan Wilson.
Gottschall was profiled by The New York Times and The Chronicle of Higher Education. His work was featured in an article in Science describing literature and evolution. His work The Rape of Troy: Evolution, Violence and the World of Homer describes the Homeric epic poems Iliad and Odyssey in terms of evolutionary psychology, with the central violent conflicts in these works driven by the lack of young women to marry and the resulting evolutionary legacy, as opposed to the violent conflicts being driven by honor or wealth.
Literature, Science and a New Humanities advocate that the humanities, and literary studies in particular, need to avail themselves of quantitative and objective methods of inquiry as well as the traditional qualitative and subjective, if they are to produce cumulative, progressive knowledge, and provides a number of case studies that apply quantitative methods to fairy and folk tale around the world to answer questions about human universals and differences.
Gottschall's book, The Storytelling Animal: How Stories Make Us Human (Houghton Mifflin 2012), is about the evolutionary mystery of storytelling—about the way we shape stories, and stories shape us.[9] A review by The Virginian-Pilot said, "Gottschall assesses and accounts for that powerful narrative attraction in a compelling chronicle of his own...and it is a certifiable knee-slap, three-pipe, blue-moon ripsnorter. The Storytelling Animal was a New York Times Editor's Choice selection and a Los Angeles Times Book Prize finalist.
In the book The Professor in the Cage: Why Men Fight, and Why We Like to Watch (Penguin 2015), Gottschall describes the three years he spent at a Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) gym trying to learn how to fight. He uses this experience as a way to explore the evolutionary psychology of violence, masculinity, and sports.
In 2021, Gottschall published The Story Paradox: How Our Love of Storytelling Builds Societies and Tears Them Down. The book received a harshly critical review by Timothy D. Snyder in the New York Times. This led to letters to the editor by Steven Pinker, his work also being critically in the article, and Gottschall.

Arnold Ehret received his degrees at 21 and taught college until he was drafted for military service. Released after nine months because of “neurasthenic heart trouble,” Ehret resumed his teaching career at 31 despite chronic ill health, suffering from kidney trouble with consumptive tendency. Under the care of 24 different physicians at one time or another, Ehret finally turned to natural methods, vegetarianism, and mental healing, but still without completely satisfactory results.&nbsp;
A sojourn in Nice, living on a radical milk-and-fruit diet proved helpful but only partially beneficial. The following winter, Ehret traveled to Algiers, living almost exclusively on the plentiful native fruits. His condition rapidly improved, and he was emboldened to try short fasts, hopefully desiring to assist Nature in the cleansing properties of fruit and climate.&nbsp;
Success crowned his efforts, for not only did he regain good health, but also unbelievable energy, strength, and joy of living. He and a companion undertook an 800-mile bicycle trip from Algiers to Tunis, returning completely exhilarated by their feat! Through years of continuous experimentation on himself and others, studying diets in Central and Southern Europe and the Middle East, Ehret successfully developed his MUCUSLESS DIET HEALING SYSTEM.&nbsp;
Thousands of patients were taught these methods of regaining health in what he called his “Fruit Fasting” Sanitarium in Switzerland. Coming to the United States just before World War I (which conflict later necessitated his remaining there), Professor Ehret embarked upon an immensely popular lecture tour. Who was Arnold Ehret? was written by Fred Hirsch, an associate and student of Professor Ehret.&nbsp;
Fred graduated from Ehret’s Mucusless Diet Healing System class of 1922. Carrying the Torch At fifty-six, while enjoying a superior state of health known to only a few people, he met an unfortunate accident, suffering a basal fracture of the skull, which caused almost instant death. After Ehret died in 1922, Fred Hirsch continued Ehret’s life work. Fred maintained the club and published Ehret’s books.&nbsp;
Today this legacy lives on through the members of the Arnold Ehret Health Club and Ehret Literature Publishing Company. This article was written by Fred Hirsch, an associate and student of Professor Ehret who, after Professor Ehret’s untimely death, took over as the head of the Health Club as well as publisher of his books.&nbsp;
Fred Hirsch graduated from Ehret’s Mucusless Diet Healing System of 1922 and went on to live a shining example of Ehretism. Fred tells us about Professor Ehret’s early days and his personal experiences in learning these lessons for himself. Professor Arnold Ehret founded The Club in the early 20th century.&nbsp;
Today the goal of The Club continues to assist people in their quest for better health through Professor Ehret’s teachings. The Club is where Ehretists and people interested in their health can work with other similarly motivated people to gain that edge. You are all welcome to be a part of this exciting club that was designed by Ehret to unlock healthfulness in all of us.
