The Edge Effect: Achieve Total Health and Longevity with the Balanced Brain Advantage 14 reviews
Eric R. Braverman
Sterling, 2005
Get Ur Brain Balanced-- and get to where you wanna be!!
I can't believe there aren't more rave reviews here. I had to jump up and down when I realized that 10 years of discomfort, allergies, forgetfulness, and other annoying symptoms had a chance to finally be resolved.
Of course, one cannot make any medical claims. Its just a window into what could be an answer for you.
After taking the test (questionnaire in beginning of book), and reading ...

The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals450 reviews
Michael Pollan
Penguin, 2007
One of the most interesting books you will ever read.
I went into this book with the expectation it would shove a bunch of ideals down my throat, and try to turn me into a vegan. This couldn't be further from the truth. From the very start of The Omnivore's Dilemma, Michael Pollan simply presents the facts (and his own experiences) and leaves the rest up to you. But even more, he does this with clear, compelling, intelligent writing that truly opens ...

A friend of mine recommended this book and I can't thank him enough! I have read it cover to cover and so has my husband. We bought 5 copies and have been lending them to friends to read.
My husband and I had already been vegetarians and we knew all the health benefits of this lifestyle. The information confirmed all of our reasons and also convinced us to cut out dairy as well.
The book is ...

The Brain That Changes Itself: Stories of Personal Triumph from the Frontiers of Brain Science (James H. ...97 reviews
Norman Doidge
Penguin (Non-Classics), 2007
Accessible Science
Dr Doigdge does an amazing job of teaching difficult scientific concepts in a manner that made me want to keep reading because I was understanding it. Who would have thought that a nonfiction book about brain plasticity would become a page turner? I hope he writes another book about the brain. As he points out, we are discovering so much about it and at a fast pace.

Waking Up to Your Life Again: A Brilliant Guide to Understanding Depression
I was actually led to seek out information on meditation as a treatment for depression through a book called Surviving America's Depression Epidemic by psychologist Bruce E. Levine. That book takes a highly insightful approach to investigating the sociological and personal genesis for depression and I credit it for saving me from succumbing to this condition. Afterwards, I bought "The Mindful Way ...

He's taking the class for a biology degree, and I'm taking the class for massage therapy. Every time we have looked up a word, it has been there. If it needs a picture, there is one. It always gives you the root word with prefix and suffix separated and what ...
