I can't say it's awesome. People who pick up this book are probably aware of all the "rules" listed. People who need help with the "rules" probably will never pick up this book. I guess it's a "cheat sheet" for people who don't otherwise give a crap about the reason to eat differently.
Just re-read this one. Quick, realistic rules that are good for everyone. Only one rule per page so it doesn't take long to finish. But actually following the rules is another story altogether!

Easy to read. Great realistic advice. Short format
This little book has some solid advice. It's kind of like all the things your grandma would say with some tempered advice from the back to nature movement rolled in to one. I was familiar with 99% of the advice in the book, but it is handy to have it all in one place. I would recommend to anyone needing to detoxify from the ideas of the modern American diet.
The content in this book is fine (although nothing groundbreaking) there is just too little of it. The advice about food would make a nice article but this is such a stretch even as a "pocket guide". Tons of white space and pointless sketches of random food on every other page as filler suggest an attempt to cash in on popularity while the author and publisher can. Don't buy this ($11!), maybe get it out of the library or just read it there if you have a few minutes.
Pollan + Kalman = Yummy. Wish there was more than one course, though...
