Prevent and Reverse the Full Spectrum of Inflammatory Symptoms and Diseases

Review:Very informative book. However, I lost too much weight on paleo, so I certainly could not go as far as doing AIP that she suggests which is an even stricter diet. I am trying now to eat balanced Mediterranean diet with more fruits and veggies and get better sleep . . . Hope that works. It is a very informative book though. Read more

Why Leaky Gut May Be the Root Cause of Your Health Problems and 5 Surprising Steps to Cure It

Review:I am very impressed with the amount of knowledge Dr. Axe has. I am also pleased that I don't need a dictionary to be able to read his box or listen to his talks. I always walk away with learned information. Read more

The Feeling Good Handbook (Plume)
The Feeling Good Handbook (Plume)

Review:This one's the real deal! Burns tackles our crazy thoughts that cause our emotions and helps us replace those thoughts with healthy, accurate, rational thoughts. It really isn't your mother-in-law whose making you feel bad about yourself, it's your thoughts about her that are. Believe me, I was amazed when I delved deep into my head and realized what was going on in that jungle!

What you must know about this book, though, is that this is not a 'read it and feel better' exercise. This is a... Read more

How Our Intuitions Deceive Us - The Invisible Gorilla

Review:A very insightful book. You walk away with an understanding of how illusions of reality are formed in our minds. The writer has thoroughly documented his presentation. However, I found the detailed case descriptions to be a bit more elaborate than I was interested in, so I had to skim through them to get to the next eye-opening concept. Read more

The Night Shift
The Night Shift

Review:This autobiography got long and boring. I did not appreciate the language.
I've been in an ER a number of times in the past year. I appreciate the good
care received in one hospital, not so good in the other. I'r sure Dr. Goldman
does a fine job and is a caring individual. Read more

LaunchPad for Invitation to the Life Span (Six Month Access)
LaunchPad for Invitation to the Life Span (Six Month Access)

Review:This loose leaf version of the text is an amazing bargin. However, the publisher did not take into account how you would store the papers - the holes punched in it do NOT fit in a standard 3-ring binder, they are not spaced properly. This happened to every student in my course.

The text provides an informative, easy-to-read introduction to developmental psychology. Some students found the numerous side notes to be a bit distracting while going through their chapters. Read more

Absolutely NO reservations about recommending this book to anyone (at any level of knowledge about the brain) interested in learning about your most comple... Read more
