4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: an excellent guidebook for healthy living, March 7, 2006 Reviewer:C. Hull "c hull" (Indiana, USA) - This is a book by Vasant Lad and his wife. They give easy to follow guidelines on the best foods for your body type, along wtih great recipes. I have tried a few so far, and all are excellent. The explanations for each recipe are very detailed and informative, and accurately give the best types for the recipe. If you are a student of Yoga and/or Ayurveda, or just want to learn more about healthy, balanced Indian cooking, this is top notch source.
