It has been many years since that time and although I believed it was a good, informative book, I was not ready to follow his suggestions.

The book is purportedly about marriage. I can tell you as an unmarried person that ...             Why Don't Students Like School: A Cognitive Scientist Answers Questions About How the Mind Works and What It ...43 reviews Daniel T.

A great book with a detailed study of what foods will lower or raise one's glucose levels with many excellent recipes for a healthy diet.
