| From bestselling author Michael Pollan comes "In Defense of Food", the highly anticipated followup to his previous masterpiece, "Omnivore's Dilemma".
Unlike "Omnivore's Dilemma" which was more of an exploration of the food that is on the typical North American dinner table. "In Defense of Food" is more of a prescription for healthy eating, and a natural follow-up to Pollan's excellent investigative work in "Omnivore's Dillemma". Essentially, Pollan's argument is that we ... Read More: |

| This book could be broken down into three parts. The first few chapters document the shocking state of our current agricultural industry and in particular the ecological costs of our massive overproduction of corn and the consequences it is having on the beef we eat. The middle portion is a first hand description of one farm in particular that has bucked the trend and still remained viable. This is then expanded into a more comprehensive look at the organic food industry and how it is evolving. Finally the author ... Read More: |

| After trying out some of the recipes, it wouldn't now occur to my kids that one could make cookies without beans :-) So, some of the book's ideas are very creative.
The ideas in this book, both for always having pureed veggies on hand, and for the sheer creativity of some of the recipes, are quite inspiring. Having said that, however, not all the ingredients are listed in the quantities that best go with the recipes, e.g. the chocolate cookie dough is too thick (and, incidentally, works better ...

| I bought this book after seeing the authors on the Ellen show. It seemed to me like a good book to read, but I couldn't get myself to finish it. I consider myself to be at a very healthy weight, and wanted to see if the book could give me advice on how to maintain my weight and maybe lose and extra 5 pounds or so to tone up a bit. Boy, was I wrong. This book made me feel terrible about myself! They constantly swear at the reader and call them "fat" and "lazy." How awful. I don't recommend this book unless you are prepared to become ... Read More: |

| Solid Book, It does and doesn't have me sold, so I can only give it a 3 star as any diet, or study can unfortunately be completely backwards for a number of people. Nothing works for everyone. I have read with great accuracy scientific studies on diets that are high in saturated fat and animal products that have yielded great health and results. This one is pro whole foods vegetarian diet, great most people need more greens in their diet for better health. any change will produce massive changes to begin with, just long term it may not be best for everyone. ...

| A half a dozen years ago a friend of mine underwent bypass surgery when he was in his mid-sixties. Shortly after that he stumbled on to the Weston A. Price Foundation, where he met Mary & Sally. They told him what he wanted to hear. His heart disease was all the fault of processed foods. High-fat animal foods are heart healthy! Cholesterol is a nutrient!
Not too long after that he took up running, and I first met him at a pub run. I had also become quite interested in nutrition, especially after reading John Robbins' "The Food Revolution". Needless to ... Read More: |

| Like the other two reviewers already stated... it's a nice shiny glossy colorful book full of great nutrition advice for the person starting out on a new path of healthful eating. NO JUNK is the principle and is elaborated on so everyone will understand the full spectrum of unhealthy foods.
I would not even recommend this for people with some nutrition knowledge who need to get back to basics, as it is so simple indeed. There are a lot of "filled" pages, the book could easily be condensed. |

| this cookbook is the outstanding sequel to skinny bitch....and if you loved that book, you need to get this one...the recipes are pretty good...but some make a lot more then what the recipe states..eg; bitchin breakfast burrito was good but was supposed to serve 4 people it could easily serve six..unless you have a huge appetite. the sushi recipe was also good but made alot....i am only cooking for 1 person though. so a person with a couple people to feed would probably love the size of theses recipes..overall i would recommend this book as one of the better ones out there. good helthy ...
