This actually came to me as a set of two books but the majority of the volumes were caloric tables.In my opinion Michael Dow, the author of The Pen and Paper Diet, did himself a bit of a disservice by failing to provide more text, more of a story for those of us who are more right brained.We like to read about the results and to see something tangible.
That having been said the work that Michael Dow has done on the tables is meticulous and as a reference this book is worth the price of purchase alone.So if you are interested in detailed caloric tables for your every day use I highly recommend that you get this book.If you are looking for inspiration for the struggle of changing your life inside this book I am sorry to say that The Pen and Paper Diet is shorter in that area.

How to Survive Your Diet and Conquer Your food Issues Forever
Author: Linda MoranISBN: 0-9749396-0-9Publisher: Betterway PressWhat I most loved about Linda Moran’s book – which aims to help those afflicted by the ills of dieting to become normal eaters – is that she doesn’t emphasise exercise as the route to shedding pounds. What a relief! As she claims in the book, she spent one year immobile and still lost weight – the point is that if we’re truly in tune to eating only what our body needs, which is what this book is about, it will adjust our...

The Following Review Was Contributed by: S.V.SWAMY PUTTING IT ON PAPER - THE GROUND RULES FOR CREATING PROMOTIONAL PIECES THAT SELL BOOKS by DAWN JOSEPHSON is clear in its target group - authors who need to promote their books and who lack the resources to engage capable people like Dawn to do the job. The need to promote the book is of course very well known and accepted. Once the need is accepted, the choices are clear: either engage a competent Author Services Outfit or do it yourself....
