Excellent book
As a counselor who worked with teens, this book, and the entire series, was a must read. It allowed my clients to realize they were not alone in suffering the abusive homelife. It also made talking about their own incidents easier. Other books in the series shows how Dave overcame the horors of his childhood and is a successful adult, but, most important a good father. It certaintly isnt for the very young due to the graffic nature of his abuse.

Working thur the South Beach Diet book
2 of 2 found this helpful The first part of the book is very useful and is written in an easy to understand verbage. It makes it easier to understand the good and bad foods and the impact they have on the body. I found it helpful when finding your way thru the process of, what can I eat and do to maximize my success. It walks thur the week by week dos and don'ts.
My concerns is the lack of dairy products for women who should maintain their calcium intake. The other aspect I didnt find useful were the receipes. They weren't something that busy working families would use on a daily basis. I would like to have seen them geared to feed a family of 3 or more without putting such a strain on a tight food budget.

WOW excellent book.
Anyone who is a parent will find this book pulling at the heart strings. It starts as a simple story of a man who gets out of the business rat race to follow his dream. The events in the book do a 360 at the end. An excellent read.
