A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose (Oprah's Book Club, Selection 61)
by Eckhart Tolle
Amazon Price: $7.70
Customer Review: it's called the Bible. Tolle's book is New Age mysticism mixed with amateur Buddhism and a dash of Gnosticism. There is one God, one Savior, and One Way. People will always be looking for the "Next Big Thing" (like this book) when the Real Thing h...

In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto
by Michael Pollan
Amazon Price: $13.17
Customer Review: The best part of this book is the beginning, where the author explains the history of the western diet. Then he discredits modern nutrition scientists, or nutritionists as he calls them, putting them in the ranks of alchemists. Also he seems to acc...

The Omnivore's Dilemma: A Natural History of Four Meals
by Michael Pollan
Amazon Price: $9.60
Customer Review: What a fascinating book. I'm a consultant who travels and eats out a lot, and I considered myself to be a casual foodie. Let's just say that ignorance may be bliss with regards to where the edibles come from, the definition of organic, the nasty de...

The Secret
by Rhonda Byrne
Amazon Price: $14.37
Customer Review: I have been a follower of The law of Attraction for many years. Rhonda Byrne has brought this universal law to the forefront with her book and that we are grateful for. However, I found it too superficial as compared to the books by Esther and Jerry...
