| | Customer Reviews: Spare but Useful Book (01 September 2010)Thanks to author Pollan many folks, like myself, are becoming interested in what (and why) we eat what we eat. His other books are certainly more informative but this is a terrific basic primer in what one should eat. Good stuff and well worth the seven bucks. How about some publishing rules? (30 August 2010)Whether it was the publisher or author responsible, someone ought to come up with rules on what to write and how to publish. This volume does not speak well of either party. The worth of content is questionable at best. It certainly does not complement Pollan's other laudatory works. OK...so it's a pocket guide. Cute. I'm not going to carry it in my "man purse", though. The book itself is very cheaply manufactured...if it's meant to be a carry-along guide, it should have a stiffened and supple cover; instead it is flimsy paperback material. The page paper is something less than newsprint....it will wear, tear and tan quickly. The pricetag doesn't measure up with the book in any respect. My copy is going back unread. Helpful Rules (27 August 2010)I checked this book out after watching Food, Inc. (Pollan co-starred, which probably changed my life, no joke). These rules were helpful toward making the transition into healthier eating. It is a quick read with easy enough rules to follow. Watch Food, Inc. and you will have no problem following these rules. Michael Pollan (25 August 2010)Another genius book by Michael Pollan. Simple and easy to read, a great starter "foodie" book. Simplest thing you can do to eat right! (23 August 2010)Originally saw this author on "The Colbert Report" discussing the book. Gives you the absolute simplest guidelines from the eons of time to eat healthier and simpler. Forget counting calories and start following age old rules and adages. | |
