Journal,
3/15/10
“Recommended as an accessible introduction to integrating ideas of traditional Chinese medicine into cooking.”
InfoDad.com, 3/25/10
“The recipes themselves would earn the book a high rating, but it is the context in which the authors place the food that really makes this book outstanding. Each recipe is followed by information on health issues that the recipe may be useful in addressing – according to the way Oriental medicine is practiced…All in all,Ancient Wisdom, Modern Kitchenis a feast for the mind as well as the palate; and perhaps some readers will find that it can represent a few steps on the path toward wellness, too.”
Sacramento Book Review, 3/27/10
“Loaded with useful information to take care of your health.”
UK’sHealth & Fitnessmagazine, May 2010

Robert Alan Bonakdar, M.D., director of pain management at the Scripps Center for Integrative Medicine and co-director of the symposium Natural Supplements: An Evidence-Based Update
