Nowadays you can seldom find a book from which you learn absolute nothing. But this is the one. The book makes a big claim. But the author is dancing around in providing details and hard data. Whenever he makes a critical argument,the evidence is gone and footnote is gone. It looks like that he made up the story. I even don't want to resell it because I believe that nobody should read this kind of garbage.

1.0 out of 5 stars An ad for BabyPlus. Just awful., August 25, 2009

What a disappointment this book was: a compilation of technical information and a shameless plug for Baby Plus about which there is no compelling evidence to its efficacy or safety. A waste of money.

I appreciate the concepts advanced in this text, but it is poorly written. The entire book could be condensed into an article. Author goes off on tangents and writes with too many modifiers, which makes for a rambling incoherent text.
