Great straightforward honest approach from a personal perspective Odd sketches throughout

It's short, lots of worry examples, helpful ideas to practice Style of writing a little dull in places

The author is in the unique position of being both a scientest and a cancer survivor. None really.

Easy to read, some good tips, will help you lose weight in no time It is hard, you will need great willpower before starting, cleaning the juicer 5 X a day is a pain

Educational, interesting and personal The conclusion left me with a lot of questions
