This book accomplishes several needed functions. The Gerson Therapy is brought up to date, (the therapy is over 60 years old), with the latest information including program modifications for people who have had chemotherapy, for people who are in an extremely weakened state, and a modified program for non cancer chronic conditions. The information is provided in a highly readable and understandable format. The book details the background, theory, and enough specific cases to establish credibility without being overbearing. In fact most of the case studies are used to detail understanding of the therapy. The book does not sugar coat the difficulty of healing using natural therapy and states that the Gerson Therapy may be the most difficult to follow of the many that are available. All of the information required to do the therapy either on one's own or in conjunction with a qualified clinic or practitioner is provided in easily accessible section. (There is some redundancy in some of the specific sections but this redundancy eliminates the need to search for needed information for people who are following the therapy). The number of recipes is expanded from previous books, and this is a welcome addition for anyone who has followed the therapy. The mental aspects of natural healing are now addressed and are given a separate section in the book. Finally, many tricks and techniques needed to make the therapy more workable are included. The bottom line is that the book is both informative and is useable as a day to day guide for anyone deciding to do the therapy.

I am extremely happy with my purchase for 2 reasons:-

1. The book provided me with the information that I needed to know about the Gerson Therapy 50-60 years down the track. It supplied all information on the protocols and answered many questions on how to regain one's health via foods that we eat. I highly recommend it for the serious health enthusiast!!

2. I had been eyeing this particular book for some time, but the price $42-00+ kept me from purchasing it. So when I came across Fishpond I couldn't believe my eyes at their much reduced prices. I knew that I could afford this and straightaway made the purchase.

Thank you Fishpond for your fantastic service and prices!!!!
