The Paleo Diet: Lose Weight and Get Healthy by Eating the Food You Were Designed to Eat 67 reviews Loren Cordain
Wiley, 2002
works for me
+ Great concept- good follow through + Paleo create for Creationists, too!

Then, about 6 weeks ago, I read it again, tried this new way of eating and have lost 10 pounds so far.

Hunter-Gatherers: Archaeological and Evolutionary Theory (Interdisciplinary Contributions to Archaeology) 1 review Robert L. Bettinger
Springer, 1991
DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK
This book was impossible to read, full of a PH. D's arrogant use of extensive and irrelavent vocabulary. He spent so much time trying to sound intelligent that any information gleaned from this text is dilutted to nothingness.
i reiterate, do not buy this book, it is a waste of money and time.

Be that as it may, the book under review is about ordinary eating of ordinary meat, specifically wild ...
