Review:I normally love these books. This one, however, did not have enough straightforward questions that can be asked of anybody. Some of them are best left to asking oneself and not another person unless you know them very well. There are some really deep and/or convoluted questions. Many of the questions I have to skip because they are not really conducive to having fun with getting to know somebody. Read more

Review:I love reading this book as my daughter is preparing to welcome twins into her life. It helps me feel connected to her and I am learning a lot of things that are new in the 34 years since she was born! Read more

Review:This is our most tattered and used cookbook in the house. First off, its flaws are tolerable. I find some of the recipes ask for too much pasta, but you can easily adjust stuff like that. I am also sometimes suspicious about the sugar in some of these recipes, especially after reading the China Study and Whole. I love that there are pictures for most of the recipes, however they are all zoomed in and I would prefer some of the pictures be taken farther back to give a better idea of what the dish...

Review:I have mixed emotions about China Study Quick & Easy Cookbook. The photography is nice so you get an idea of what each dish is without having to read the recipe first, so deciding what you want to cook is easier. But two things frustrate me about the book:
...No nutrition information for the recipes, and
...Unclear cooking instructions.

I ordered the book because I read The China Study and other books based on that information, so I'm eating vegan for both humane reasons and for... Read more

Review:Good information and follow-through from "The China Study." Some parts are wordy, but the chapters end with a section called "The Bottom Line," which really summed things up well. I had a lot of health questions answered, and this research really rings true to me. I love the 2-week kick-start plan - I needed something exactly laid out to begin my journey! My favorite recipe so far is the sweet potato enchiladas - so delicious! I feel like a whole-food plant-based diet is not only very doable... Read more

Review:Too good and too practical book! It addresses every possible issues, one may face, and address them very well, providing the most practical solutions/guidelines!

Must read for anybody who thinks, they are not achieving at par with their capabilities, more so, because of confusion about what to choose, what really interests and like. Read more
