I read reviews that praised this book at Amazon and I had it on my wishlist forever. I finally got it and I adore it, the perfect book about Ayurveda IMO. It is co written by a doctor, someone going through the healing process, and a chef who has traveled extensively.

The first third is full of information about the different types and the lifestyle and healing.
What I really liked about this more than the other that I have is that they wrote a lot about modern concerns that I think are very important- organic food, how animals are raised in the USA etc. There is a lot of information on many different topics.

The second third contains easy recipes for your dosha. I liked that they were clearly labeled what dosha they were intended for and after the recipe they showed you how you could modify for it for other doshas. This is great because not only do you learn how to make food for yourself, but you also learn the concept of modifying other recipes for your needs and others that you cook for.

The final third has slightly more complicated recipes for when you have more time and these all look fabulous. What a great concept! This section also had information on how to make staples like ghee and yogurt. Mmmm ( )

"Eat Taste Heal makes the ancient healing wisdom of Ayurveda accessible - and deliciously so - to modern cooks everywhere. Read this book." - Deepak Chopra

Eat Taste Heal: An Ayurvedic Cookbook for Modern Living provides modern applications of Ayurveda, humankind's most ancient system of healthy living. A complete guidebook and cookbook in one, this book offers every reader an individualized blueprint for achieving vibrant health. Fulfilling the adage, "Let Food Be Thy Medicine," Eat Taste Heal offers recipes that are inviting to both the kitchen novice and master chef.

The authors are a unique trio: physician, patient, and chef. Dr. Thomas Yarema, M.D., director of the Kauai Center for Holistic Medicine and Research, created for his patients an understandable dietary program rooted in common sense. Daniel Rhoda, a patient who found healing through Ayurveda, demystifies the ancient science that helped restore his health. Chef Johnny Brannigan, an internationally trained Ayurvedic chef, has created more than 150 recipes to empower individual healing through the exploration of taste.
