Book Description:
The first of its kind, Glow is more than a cookbook, more than a health-and-beauty guide - it is a path to a healthy lifestyle. Using the healing properties of whole foods, the author demonstrates how to use them in daily life to achieve an overall, healthy glow.
By combining ancient Eastern practices for health with more than 150 delicious, whole-food recipes, and healing face washes, massage oils, cleansers, scrubs and soaks, this book caters to a burgeoning market of consumers interested in whole foods and vegetarianism, but most of all to the readers interested in a more balanced, more natural way of life.

Not great by Lisa B. Hup
I am glad I got this book on the cheap. The recipes include ingredients that are not readily accesible. What she has to say is fine, is true, I think, but not a really good book to really sink your teeth into (place pun here), and use.
Laughingly bad by D. Jackson
This might be a book to borrow from a friend. If a friend doesn’t already own it, it’s unlikely to appeal to you. If you’d like to borrow it from my girlfriend, she’d probably let you just keep it. That’s all I can say without being offensive, as I’ve tried to edit something better than this for a few minutes too long.
Tasty recipes! by evangeline kate
This book has a lot of interesting things to think about as far as listening to what your body is telling you, and reminds us that you are what you eat! What I love most about this book is the recipes, though. Mmmmmm! The Mushroom Bread Pudding, Lemon Poppyseed Poundcake, and Crispy Tempeh with Sweet Mustard Sauce (among many others) are must have recipes for anyone who wants to eat well and live healthy while indulging in deliciousness!
Not much new by C. Henry
Pirelli does a nice job recycling the standard macrobiotic approach to health (and beauty as a by-product). The complaints about the yin and yang classifications aren’t Pirelli’s fault–they go back to Georges Ohsawa and his dharma heir, Michio Kushi, who changed the old Taoist classifications to suit their agenda, and possibly simplify explanations. Pirelli’s a little looser and more fun than Kushi though–easier reading.
