The 7 Principles of Fat Burning
I bought this book on referral from a friend who had lost 15 pounds in 2 weeks doing the Liver Enhancement phase. I like this program over Atkins because some fruits are allowed and even encouraged early on in the program. I've lost weight on The Atkin's diet before but lately I wasn't getting the weight to budge that way. This book explains in detail how much hormones and what we eat can ...

Useful even for the graduate student
I must confess that I worked with one of the authors (S. Wang) several years ago. This book is a great resource to get a big picture view of the brain. As a grad student, the book has expanded my knowledge outside of my field of interest. It's an appealing and useful book to anyone curious about neuroscience.

Excellent resource for healthy living & a healthy weight
Finally! After sifting through many, many diet books, here's one written by someone who is ACTUALLY an expert and not someone who just decided to write a diet book. I appreciate all the details, the suggestions, and multitude of options for "real" life. The others who have reviewed and been frustrated by flipping through the book -- well, you know, it takes dedication and repetition to really ...

Lee Child Novels
Having just discovered novels by Lee Child, I have read only "Bad Luck and Trouble" and "Nothing to Lose". I thoroughly enjoy his writing. His writing is similar to David Baldacci and Dan Brown in that the plot is so smooth and rich. Child can get his point across without undue vulgarity. I will be searching for some of his previous novels and cannot wait for his next book.

Useful source of information
I read a numerous amount of the reviews and some were displeased that so many other people were giving advice or sharing there experience so much throughout the book. I guess they felt the entire book should have been based soley on the author and his words of wisdom, direction and guidelines. However, I found reading others that may or may not have experienced what I had was so helpful. It was ...

Lifestyle change, not a fad diet
This is an educational book, not your typical diet book. I learned all about the different kinds of fat and why my body needs some and doesn't need others and what foods have the best (or worst) sources. The book is not just about fat either. It is about nutrition; eating nutrient dense foods (getting the most bang out of what you eat). So you can nourish your body while shedding pounds. And ...

works for me
I read this book a few years ago and at the time, thought it was too extreme and unworkable. Then, about 6 weeks ago, I read it again, tried this new way of eating and have lost 10 pounds so far. It takes some getting used to, but you don't have to restrict calories, you just have to eat plenty of LEAN protein (unlike the Atkins diet), and plenty of fruits and veggies. No dairy, no grains, ...

Alice Sebold has proven thrice now that she understands the darker aspects of humanity in a profound and unique way. She understands that mother-daughter relationships are always complicated but when these relationships are complicated by mental illness, the water gets even murkier. This ...
