Customer Reviews:
Do not buy this book . . . .......2007-03-21
. . . unless you began using email yesterday. It is a classic example of unhelpful, non-writing. My heart sank when I turned the first page and noticed the font size - about 14 points, with 1.5 line spaces. This is a magazine article, inflated to book-length. On the plus side, you won't need a separate, large print edition. If you want the only useful suggestion in this book, here it is: send less email, and maybe you'll receive less. You'll only reach this pearl of wisdom after enduring over 100 pages of drivel, such as, "The sent folder contains copies of all the email messages you compose and send." Really? Eureka! My life is transformed! The author has managed to fill 185 pages with similar sentences, each of which should be punctuated with "DUH!" If anyone has a good strategy for controlling email - and I don't want to read long stories about hamsters, either - I'll be glad to buy their book.
This book was not helpful at all.......2006-12-31
After reviewing all the choices in this category, I purchased this book because the description promised solutions to e-mail overload. As a busy entrepreneur running a 10-person team from a home office, e-mail is a very big part of my workday. I was looking for solid strategies to help me use this tool more efficiently and effectively. Instead, I got an eye-glazing management analysis, pitifully short on solutions. Directed at managers and employees of large corporations, the book is all but useless for anyone else. The so-called solutions were just short of insulting. A few standout examples: "Don't send unnecessary e-mails"; "Don't read every e-mail you get"; "Pick up the phone instead of sending an e-mail." Ya think? Maybe there really is no solution, but after slogging through 189 b-o-r-i-n-g pages, it would have been nice to come away with ONE solid suggestion that could be implemented. I can't say I got even that.
Become E-mail Suave.......2006-05-09
In Managing Your E-Mail: Thinking Outside the Inbox, Cavanagh offers several suggestions to increase your e-mail suaveness. She begins by explaining the significance of the problem: mismanaged e-mail can cost millions in lost productivity. She also points out how e-mail can cause certain legal problems. She then answers these problems by suggesting solutions for e-mail policy development, inbox management, and better e-mail drafting.
This book is a good read for anyone who uses e-mail in the workplace, especially at large companies and institutions. Everyone will benefit from implementing her suggestions right away. This book is also a must for anyone who is in charge of e-mail policy development. As far as application, there are some really useful suggestions on how to improve your email drafting. You will be able to quickly write more professional e-mails, which will have more impact, and keep your reader's attention. After reading this book, one will also gain a better understanding of technical processes of e-mail.
Cavanagh disappointed me, however, with some of her suggestions about inbox management. She basically suggests deleting everything but the most important e-mail. I am, of course, somewhat over simplifying. But I can say that after implementing her suggestions of inbox management, I found myself out of the loop with some important information. Perhaps these suggestions need to implemented by the whole institution to be effective.
Increased Business Productivity.......2004-06-15
I enjoyed this book because it helped me increase my business productivity by redefining my e-mail habits.
Christina Cavanagh outlines the dangers of e-mail, including viruses and lawsuits. She also shows the productivity decreases caused by spam, e-mail ping-pong, and inappropriate use of e-mail as a communication medium.
More than that, she gives practical suggestions on how to increase your productivity using this essential business tool.
Highly Recommended!.......2004-03-02
This excellent short guide to the promise and peril of e-mail reveals some surprising and little-noted facts. Far from creating a paperless office, for example, e-mail has multiplied the paper businesses consume. Along with making communication more convenient, immediate and spontaneous, e-mail has raised false expectations and increased the probability of hard feelings and misunderstandings. If those were the only problems this book spotlights, it would be worthwhile to take it seriously. But author Christina A. Cavanagh additionally offers some frightening examples about the invisible cost of e-mail, measured in terms of employee time and legal risk. The book has a tendency to repetitiveness and prolixity, and many of the recommendations for managing e-mail are familiar. However, We particularly recommends her strong examples, which may convince managers to implement the best practices they may already understand but often ignore.

Book Description
This book is the first to present research-based data, rather than opinion, on the subject of executive mobility. J. Benjamin Forbes and James Piercy have brought together ten years of research on various topics, including backgrounds of chief executive officers, early intra-organizational mobility, and backgrounds and placements of female executives, then integrated the results to form an accurate picture of management mobility in today's corporate world. In gathering data on the entire careers of CEOs, Forbes and Piercy looked at a variety of industries, including manufacturing, utility, transportation, banking, insurance, and retailing, as well as the socio-economic backgrounds of these industries' executives. Throughout the work, the authors deal with specific issues, such as early promotions versus the "late bloomer," changing firms or industries to move up more quickly, and the greatest opportunities for women executives. Following an introductory chapter that provides an overview of the current environment and conventional wisdom, Forbes and Piercy offer detailed discussions of starting a career and the importance of early movement; the early competition; and mid-career issues including alternate routes to the top. Subsequent chapters deal with profiles of and projections for female executives; origins and formative years of the chief executive, including education, social status and personal characteristics; and industry differences and changes over time. The work concludes with a discussion of the careers of CEOs in different industries, and a practical look at reforming development and selection and strategically planning an individual career. This work will be a valuable tool for human resource professionals as well as for professionals and students in the management field. Public, academic, and business libraries will also find it to be an important addition to their collections.
Book Description
We all know how important it is to eat a healthy diet that includes plenty of vitamins and minerals. But most of us know very little about an important group of substances known as phytochemicals-the compounds in plants that give them their colour, flavour and even aroma-and the latest research indicates they are capable of much, much more when integrated into our everyday diets. When consumed correctly, phytochemicals may reduce the risk of heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis and many other common yet serious ailments. Rosie Schwartz, one of Canada's best-known nutritionists and a registered dietitian, first explains the nutritional science behind phytochemicals, then goes on to discuss how we can best incorporate "phyto foods" into our daily diet.
Customer Reviews:
Helpful, informative. Must buy!.......2005-11-11
I checked this book out from my local library and was glued to it for the full three weeks. I copied down many of the recipes and use them often. Now I realize that I must own a copy! The information in this book is too important to my family; we need it as a reference tool. I have been studying nutrition and health for years but learned more from this book than anywhere else.
a dietors best friend.......2005-01-26
This book is truly a gift to share with others. Just like my new beverage of choice that replaced my morning brew. Its called s oyfee and taste so wonderful with no caffeine or acids. Organic and made from soya! Bye bye acid stomach and hello healthy tummy! Google it under "acid free coffee"
A helpful guide.......2003-09-06
Rosie Schwartz's book has great recipes and makes great sense of the world of healthy eating. I really enjoyed her casual narrative and her great and original recipes.
Book Description
Consultant, dietitian, and nutritionist Lyndel Costain looks at the latest research into phytochemicals and tells the facts behind the claims and headlines. What are phytochemicals? Phytochemicals are the bio-active compounds in plants ("phyto" simply means plant) that give them their color and flavor. They are vital to plants' survival, aiding healthy growth, deterring predators and diseases, and protecting against damage from the sun. In this book, Lyndel Costain explains how phytochemicals take on a new life when we eat plant foods, and how they work to bring us lasting health benefits. Plant foods as medicine. Today, most people want to look good, feel great, and live long, active, healthy lives. Plant foods are proving to be a major ally in achieving this. With thousands of phytochemicals identified to date, compelling, ongoing research reveals the hidden power in plant foods that helps protect our health and reduce the risk of problems such as heart disease, cancer, early aging, cataracts, immune system disorders, and osteoporosis.

Plant Power.......2001-05-17
If you love to cook, you will especially love the gorgeous color photographs and nutritional information. Lyndel Costain is a consultant dietitian and nutritionist who is on a mission in life to promote the pleasure and benefits of good food for good health.
Lyndel looks at the latest research about phytochemicals and explains the facts behind the claims and headlines. Phytochemicals are the bio-active compounds in plants that gives them their color and flavor. Lyndel Costain explains how these phytochemicals take on a new life when we eat the plants. They actually help to bring us lasting health benefits.
Today, we all want to look good and feel healthy. There are over 12,000 phytochemicals which have been identified. These hidden powers can help us to reduce the risk of problems such as heart disease, cancer, stroke, cataracts, immune system disorders and osteoporosis.
In the first section, Phytochemicals are introduced. In part two, there is a guide to phytochemicals. This is a photographic guide to 20 phytochemicals, highlighted by 66 different food sources. In the last section, nutritional needs are discussed in detail.
So, are you getting your daily requirements? Do you know which foods are most beneficial? What is the Mediterranean Diet? Did you know that chocolate has flavanols (catechins)? Cocoa powder extracted from cocoa beans has very strong antioxidant activity. I knew it was a good idea to eat chocolate ";>. While we have also all heard of the benefits of Green Tea, this book shows how to maximize the benefits, what the key benefits are and which diseases it is more likely to help.
This book discusses the benefits of cherries, eggplant, cocoa, green tea, black tea, apples, onions, lettuce, celery, olives, oranges, grapefruit, soy beans, lentils, bean sprouts, wholewheat, linseeds, strawberries, walnuts, pecans, blackberries, blueberries, pears, plums, potatoes, turmeric, cranberries, peanuts, peppers, parsley, butternut squash, avocados, carrots, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, spinach, kale, mangoes, papaya, red pepper, corn, garlic, leeks, broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage, barley, oats, rye, sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, artichoke, asparagus, seaweed, shiitake mushrooms, lemon, garbanzo beans, bananas, coffee (in moderation), kiwifruit and pineapple. They all sound good to me! So, put these items on your shopping list.
This is a guide to bio-active plant compounds and their benefits. It is essential reading for everyone who wishes to make more healthy food choices. There is also a section called "caution" because apparently too much of a good thing can also be bad. So, you will want to read about why you should not just eat raw lima beans all the time or eat raw cassava because it could be fatal. If you eat too much celery, your skin could also become more sensitive to sunlight. So, this book is quite an education and is only 128 pages.
So, if you hear about a "super food" and want to research it further, this book will explain everything and help you add the healthiest foods to your diet.

Book Description
Herbs have been widely used for centuries to promote good health and treat disease in Asian countries. Indeed, the general population of both Eastern and Western countries are beginning to use herbs more frequently. International health organizations and governmental agencies such as WHO and the U.S. FDA, respectively, have recognized the consumer popularity of herbal products. In response, scientists must recognize the need to assure the efficacy and safety of traditional herbal remedies through modern research. Thus, herbal products should be continually researched as the basis for development of both high quality dietary supplements and new medicines. This book intends to address some of current developments in herbal research.

Foods That Fight Disease.......2001-02-05
Feed your mind to improve your health with a great new book by Registered Dietitian Laurie Deutsch Mozian. Her book, Foods That Fight Disease, conveys a positive message about taking charge of your health through the foods you eat.
Intended for both consumers and health experts, Mozian takes very technical research and makes it understandable. Because of the nature of the information, expect technical discussions and scientific terms. Luckily, most detailed explanations are followed by easy to understand analogies, like where free radicals are described as "...roving gangs of thug molecules, looking to start trouble in the cell...".
Making it easier to read and use, the book is divided into three parts. The sum of the parts yields an understanding of what phytochemicals are, what they do, where to find them and recipes for turning nutrient rich foods into meals.
The first section gives background on phytochemicals, which are naturally occurring food components that my have health-promoting potential.
Part two suggests how nutrient rich foods are used in treatment and hopefully, prevention of specific diseases. Included are discussions of cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and menopause (not an illness, but certainly a condition in which alleviating symptoms is desirable), just to name a few.
The third part is dedicated to phytochemical-rich recipes. Each recipe has comments and nutrition information. Practical dishes like apple crisp and tamale pie incorporate one or two nutritional powerhouses, thereby making them more appealing to skeptical eaters.
Mozian's nutrition expertise (she has a Master's degree in nutrition and food science, and is a Registered Dietitian) is evident throughout. In this book you'll find what most health-conscience people want - discussions of basic foods to eat for better health, complete with menus, recipes, serving suggestions and calorie estimates.
This book falls into the small category of `excellent diet and nutrition books' available.

The first section gives background on phytochemicals, which are naturally occurring food components that my have health-promoting potential. From Ajoene (found in garlic and is thought to be at least as potent as aspirin in preventing blood clots) to Zingerone (which has anti-inflammatory properties), you'll find descriptions of the nutrients that the term "phytochemical" encompasses. How these nutrients work to help the body is covered, as is where to find these nutritive gems.
Part two suggests how nutrient rich foods are used in treatment and hopefully, prevention of specific diseases. Included are discussions of cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and menopause (not an illness, but certainly a condition in which alleviating symptoms is desirable), just to name a few. For each, the illness is presented, followed by foods that may assist in treatment or prevention, dietary and supplement recommendations, and general supporting information.
The third part is dedicated to phytochemical-rich recipes. Each recipe has comments and nutrition information. Practical dishes like apple crisp and tamale pie incorporate one or two nutritional powerhouses, thereby making them more appealing to skeptical eaters.
Mozian's nutrition expertise (she has a Master's degree in nutrition and food science, and is a Registered Dietitian) is evident throughout. In this book you'll find what most health-conscience people want - discussions of basic foods to eat for better health, complete with menus, recipes, serving suggestions and calorie estimates. Of course, if you take prescription drugs or are under the care of a physician for an illness, it is important to let your health professionals know of major changes in your food consumption.
This book falls into the very small category of `excellent diet and nutrition books' available.

Book Description
Plant foods are rich in micronutrients, but they also contain an immense variety of biologically-active, non-nutritive compounds that contribute to colour, flavour and other characteristics. This book assesses the health benefits of phytochemicals, as well as the functional benefits of particular groups of phytochemicals such as phytoestogens, carotenoids and flavonoids. It covers key safety and quality issues in developing phytochemical products, instituting appropriate intake levels, testing for safety and establishing health claims through clinical trials. This book will establish itself as a standard reference on one of the most important sectors in the functional foods market.
