Customer Reviews

Its title belies the depth and breadth of its topic.
Anyone interested in nutrition and health should find the information in this book beneficial. It is one of those books that is difficult to put down once you have started reading it. The title belies the depth and breadth of its information. Its authors seem well versed in current nutritional research and are able to make deductions and connections which other researchers hesitate in doing. One of the very few books that I have reread immediately on completing the first reading. I have put into practice its recommendations and while the benefits appear subtle in the short term they are indeed interesting.

Sheer Brilliance
This is a book everyone should read.
The info is so insightful and so logically set forth, that it demonstrates how obviously out of sync the human animal is from nature and why we are in such appalling condition.Understanding biological cycles and hormone function are fathomable for the lay person with the hep of this book.
Diabetes,obesity, etc are all put into context,and demonstrated not as being foes,but being a natural cyclical way of life extension and protection.We just have to respect and adhere to our natural condition.
Life changing..

The "hidden" harm of light at night in the modern 24 hour day?
I am a nanotechnologist. However my hobby is astronomy. Light pollution, caused by unnecessary light at night, is destroying our birthright, our heritage of the wonders of the night sky. Kids today think stars are movie SFX, few can see the Milky Way. This book however is frightening me because of its implications concerning the LAN that obscures that Milky Way. As a nanotechnologist I know the harm being done by sub micron aerosol particulates. The "hidden" harm of light at night, as described in this book, is a warning that we may well be too late - much too late?
Ignore this book and we face a dreadful future. Like passive smoking and exposure to asbestos (like that from the WTC tower collapse), the harm may very well already have been done? Read this book and learn the future implications of what we ALL may well face?
