Title: A vile mixture of lies, pseudoscience, and fallacy
Review: This book is completely disgusting. It claims to have scientific support for the most ridiculous claims that I have ever heard. It is a bizarre mixture of Atkins and neanderthal diets and wants us all to live on raw meat and fermented milk. The "scientific" evidence is drawn from extremely poor media sources. Where even fringe science can't be found to support her claims the author discards decades of work by real scientists and makes vague statements that "the evidence supports" her ideas without any citation. Good studies are occasionally used but she is just as likely to discard balanced, well-designed studies in favour of a single unrepeatable finding or the evidence of Kirlian photography. Picking and choosing in this fashion allows you to make whatever sweeping claims you want. This is truly a dangerous book.
