power of food to impact health, the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM)
is pleased to announce its new Healthy Eating for Life series. Published by John
Wiley & Sons, Inc., this four-book collection translates the latest scientific
research about nutrition into simple guidebooks for promoting wellness and preventing and
treating disease. Each book also provides a wealth of vegetarian recipes, sample menus,
and cooking tips.
The books cover four important areas:
- Healthy Eating for Life for Children
- Healthy Eating for Life for Women

topics: Amy Lanou, Ph.D., on children; Kristine Kieswer on women;
Vesanto Melina, M.S., R.D., on cancer; and Patricia Bertron, R.D.,
on diabetes. Neal Barnard,
M.D., PCRM president and best-selling author of Eat Right,
