Decent basic overview of irritable bowel syndrome
As a physician who suffers from diarrhea-predominant IBS, I am interested in pursuing alternative therapies.I have done acupunture, Chinese herbs and rolfing in addition to dietary restriction, two rounds of Xifaxan, and meditation.I found the book interesting reading but believe that some of the information is outdated or incorrect especially in reference to suggested diets. I did like that the author discussed several alternative therapies for the treatment of IBS.I suffer from certain food sensitivities/intolerances which is also addressed in the book.

Outstanding; the ideal treatment of a sensitive subject
No need to feel embarrassed:everybody suffers from IBS from time to time.I was looking for a book that would offer more than a study guide to the digestive system combined with an encyclopedia on dietary measures, and I wound up more pleased than ever!Author Rosemary Nicol's diverse handling of everything from symptoms (both physical and emotional) of IBS and similar ailments, to stress management, antidotes and diet is absolutely impressive.

I'm not sure what her background is, but Ms. Nicol's writing exhibits thoughtful, intelligent and especially sensitive insight in discussing IBS from the perspectives of biology, psychology, and personality.Then, she elaborates on a range of antidotes too numerous to detail in this space.The one thing that will forever stand out in my mind after reading this book is the absolutely outstanding sensitivity with which the author discusses the psychological and emotional aspects linked to IBS.Her writing is simple and personable, and she doesn't talk down to the reader by throwing in tons of technical terms.The section on diet is very good, but the greatest comfort comes from someone who knows how you feel, and who looks at every angle imaginable in helping you find solutions to this bothersome condition.I give this my highest recommendation.

So thankful for this book
This book has given me hope that there is relief from my IBS. It explains this condition in a way anyone can understand. I discovered things that might be contributing to my symptoms that I had no idea were even remotelyrelated to IBS. It gives a comprehensive overview of the many treatmentsavailable, focusing on the natural and homeopathic. I have begunimplementing many of the dietary and lifestyle changes covered in this bookand look forward to feeling better. I am already feeling better, knowingthat I am taking a proactive role in regards to my health. This book hasgiven me the motivation and knowledge to take control of my own health andlife again. ...

Product Description
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.
The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.
