The Land of Woo is that remarkable place where the world works differently, where cures are effected using undetectable energy sources, where healing apparently defies modern science. It's a place where we are asked to believe in omniscient supernatural beings, who can change the physical laws of the universe on a whim. If you have ever been tempted to try homeopathy, or sample Reiki, or Ayurvedic medicine, or pray to a god, or take food supplements, or undergo detox, you should read this book. If it helps you avoid just one encounter with the Land of Woo, you will have saved money. But you will also restore your confidence in your ability to think rationally and take control of the major decisions in your life.

If you've ever tried eating fat-free tortilla chips or putting fat-free cheese on your homemade pizza, you understand the premise of this book: fat-free often means taste-free. This book looks at the fat-free and low-fat foods available in most supermarkets--from bacon to yogurt--and tells you what you really want to know about them: Do they taste good? Elaine Magee, a registered dietitian, also explains how eating these "healthier" foods can still make you gain weight (they're loaded with sugar in lieu of fat), and how best to use them to avoid that consequence.
