This easy to understand guide shows how to prepare simple dishes that are not only tasty, but are attractive to look at and packed with nutrition. The author also gives some great hints about simple things that encourage a cancer patient to eat even when they don't realize they're hungry. This book would be perfect for a spouse or other caregiver who is at their wit's end trying cook for an ailing loved one.

Everyone should know of this book. When you have little to no appetite, then you need to feed your body in the most efficient way possible. This is the instruction manual for accomplishing that.

I have given this book to many cancer patients and other people who have problems eating. It is a very gentle, caring book. A pleasure to read and easy to utilize.

Having been a nutrition counselor at a cancer center for over 3 years I must say that these recipes, despite being beautiful, simple, healthy and delicious, are not appropriate for many patients under treatment for cancer who many be experiencing nausea,vomiting, diahrrea, or who may have supressed immune systems. I think the promotion of this as a book for very ill people is misguided. It's just a short little book with tasty healthy recipes written by a chef and full of "observations"
