1.YOU: Being Beautiful: The Owner's Manual to Inner and Outer Beauty by: Michael F. Roizen, Mehmet C. Oz November 11, 2008

Most of us seek a little extra 'beauty' because it will lead to a little extra 'happiness' right? From the first page, the doctors have directed this book towards the ultimate prize, happiness. Therefore they have addressed 'beauty' holistically. From the inside out, they show us how to make the most of the cards we've been dealt. How to maintain our outward appearance (hair, skin and nails etc), and how to create more beauty from within (enhanced mental wellbeing and a healthier body). Many topics in this book have been discussed already in the author's previous publications but now you'll follow their advice to be 'beautiful' rather than to be 'young' or just plain old 'healthy'. Whatever your motivation, you'll benefit from reading this book. Jacquetta George, author of Revitalize ... Read More

2.Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain, Revised and Expanded Edition by: Oliver Sacks September 23, 2008

This book further detailed the fascination with music's neurological connection. Why do some people have a natural talent and others don't? Absolute pitch, musical savants, 'seeing' music, memory training, and gained/lost musical abilities from accidents/health issues/etc are a few of the many topics Sacks addresses. The majority of the book are case reviews from the author's various patients & studies. There are definitely some cases that feel repetitive (Okay great...another story about another guy struck by lighting with the same reaction as the previous 2 described). For someone who is interested in music's effect on the mind (and someone who is a bit nerdy), this book is perfect for casually picking up in the evenings and reading at leisure.

Stephen J Gould DID die of abdominal mesothelioma 20 years later and not of another disease. Such a glaring mistake would cause me to be skeptical of other information in this book.

I was very impressed with the many different examples of plasticity. I've been looking for this for along time.

5.You Can Heal Your Life (Gift Edition) by: Louise Hay 1999-09

Louise Hays books are very positive and uplifting. I love the affirmations in this book. I do believe that the mind's beliefs can manifest in the body. Whether or not it manifests from these certain beliefs into these certain parts of the body I am not sure. In any case the "gift edition" of the book is beautiful and it reminds me to be positive, believe that I am valuable, and helps me identify my beliefs which gives me the opportunity to change the one's I want to change.

6.The Expectant Father: Facts, Tips and Advice for Dads-to-Be, Second Edition by: Armin A. Brott 2001-05

This is a good resource for the guys. Not so technical like the Mayo or What to expect....., but it takes you through some of the fun aspects of pregnancy. Also talks about how you can do things (birth, baby furniture/clothes purchase, cord blood banking, etc etc) differently. I would say that this book contributed a bit to the confidence I had in handling things during my wife's pregnancy.

7.The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook: Your Self-Treatment Guide for Pain Relief by: Clair Davies April 01, 2001
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $10.72
Must Have Simply! I have discovered the answers to my pain, excellent book. I bought one and will now get copies for friends.

8.Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders DSM-IV-TR Fourth Edition (Text Revision) by: American Psychiatric Association 2000-06

The book came in decent shape. It was new as described but it's not printed on the same quality paper as the version published in the US. Everything else looks exactly the same, except the front cover says JAPEE on the bottom, which is the Indian publisher, I believe. The cover is not as durable and is made of card stock like paper that will crease and bend easily. The book was mailed in a plastic envalope with no hard shell protection. It arrived within a week. For less than half of the price of the US version new, I think this is worth it. A new DSM is anticipated to come out in 2012, so this one should last 4 years.

9.Strength Training Anatomy by: Frederic Delavier 2001-09
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $8.95
Wonderfully illustrated book makes it easy to understand which exercises are right for each muscle group. Very educational and also useful as a motivational tool. Only problem is its published and printed in France (written in English). Viva La Freedom Fries!

My Dr. suggested this diet to me after coming to him several times with no luck on other diets. So far, I've lost 15 1/2 pounds and I've only been on the diet 3 weeks. The diet is not for everyone. ALWAYS check with your family doctor first. If your Doctor ok's it and you follow what the author says and keep in close contact with your doctor. You can lose weight and be healthy.
