Amazon.com Review
If you've ever wondered why the latest fad diet doesn't work for you... well, there are lots of reasons, mostly the fact that it's a fad diet. But it could also be that you're the wrong blood type for the kinds of foods the diet recommends. Peter D'Adamo makes a persuasive argument that your blood type is an evolutionary marker that tells you which foods you'll process best, and which will be useless calories. He covers the entire range for each of the four blood types, from entrées to condiments and seasonings, and also makes type-specific exercise and lifestyle recommendations.
From Publishers Weekly
Cheri Erdman (Nothing to Lose: Sane Living in a Larger Body) offers emotional support to large women with Live Large! Ideas, Affirmations, and Actions for Sane Living in a Larger Body, a collection of 140 meditations promoting a positive image and a celebration of one's size. Each page begins with a "Big Idea" (for empowerment) then "Fleshes It Out" (with an affirmation) and a "Size-Wise Action" (a specific task). Erdman, a psychotherapist, offers support and encouragement for women struggling to find a way to live with the bodies they have. (Harper San Francisco, $11 160p ISBN 0-06-251345-1; Jan.)

From AudioFile
A naturopathic physician, Dr. D'Adamo is following in his father's footsteps. His dad tried to verify the connection between blood type and propensity to certain diseases and other health conditions. They propose that there is a certain diet and set of medications that can benefit people of particular blood types. Polly Adams, an odd choice to read a book written by a male, sounds like a radio disc jockey or a voice-over actress. Smooth and polished, with no trace of an accent, she handles the medical terms well. Although not exciting, this is pleasant general listening. A.G.H. (c) AudioFile, Portland, Maine
