|author=Dr William Davis
|title=Wheat Belly: The effortless health and weight-loss solution - no exercise, no calorie counting, no denial
|rating=4
|genre=Lifestyle
|summary=Dr William Davis poses an interesting question: why is it that people who are leading an active life and eating a healthy diet are putting on weight despite all their best efforts? He has a simple and worrying answer: wheat, which he argues increases blood sugar more than table sugar. The problem isn't restricted to weight gain, either: there's evidence to suggest that wheat affects psychosis and autism too. In fact - the more that you read, the more you'll wonder if there's an organ in the body which ''isn't'' adversely affected by wheat.

|author=Dr A W Chase
|title=Great Food: Buffalo Cake and Indian Pudding
|rating=4
|genre=Cookery
|summary=Think of a slim, American Mrs Beeton (her cookbook, not her) and you've got a rough idea of the premise of ''Buffalo Cake and Indian Pudding''. It includes recipes for such treats as Minnesota corn bread, popcorn pudding, pumpkin pie and pork cake. The recipes aren't the whole picture, though. Dr Alvin Wood Chase was a travelling salesman as well as an author, so being blessed with the gift of the gab, he peppers his recipes with anecdotes and comments to amuse and entertain the reader.
