great book! August 24, 2008 C. Dement (Columbus, GA) This is a great book. Lots of good info on ingredients found in cleaning and beauty items. Have recommended this book to several of my friends. Would definitely buy it again. The only drawback to this book is that the pages started comming loose from the binding within a few days of flipping through it. No problem, though. Just took it down to the office supply store and had a spiral binding put on it for a few dollars.
Too many details! July 25, 2008 angela bardoe (new jersey) 6 out of 10 found this review helpful
With all the five star ratings previously, I had high expectations for this book. Sadly, it did not live up to those expectations and for one reason only: this book includes way too much information about chemicals and the harm they cause. Don't get me wrong, I want to know 'generally' about these things such as parabens, etc. but I don't need a complete list of every chemical manufactured on the planet and what they do. I did not find that positive or motivating. Having said that, YOU may want to know! And, I would actually buy this book again. It is a great reference book that you could go back to over and over again. And, because it is so detailed, it would really help you find anything you could possible ever need. For example, later today I will be checking a website that she mentioned that sells eco-friendly lightbulbs that can be used with a dimmer switch! And I may take a look at a company that sells reclaimed wood for replacing my floors...It really is a great book, I just felt that I was skipping over the parts which I didn't have such an interest in.
The Best Book for Eco-Friendly Living July 3, 2008 T. Russo Jr. (Parsippany, NJ) 5 out of 8 found this review helpful
This is the most comprehensive, easy to use, guide for eco-friendly living that I have seen in years. I strongly recommend that you consider purchasing this book and using it as a handy reference for everything from personal care products to paint to household items. I have purchased several of these from Amazon after reading it cover to cover from the local library and I will be giving them as Christmas gifts this year. The book will quite simply change your life for the better.
Excellent! June 30, 2008 S. Rosten 5 out of 7 found this review helpful
I have a few green living books, and this one is by far the best (and makes some other popular green guides look like trendy, puff pieces). It's informative, well set out and very practical. Everything you need to know to go green is in this book! An excellent investment.
Green your whole life!!! May 26, 2008 Diane Moore 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
Greening your life seems to be a process. It's not something that you can do in one day. It's taken me a few years to slowly get rid of the things that weren't good for me, especially cleansers, beauty products, and food. Not only will using green products help you and your body, but they can help the earth as well! This woman really did her homework. She not only stated where she received the abundance of information she wrote about, but she gave tons of resources as well!! Even if you don't want to give up your everyday products, like: fabric softener, oven cleaner, and makeup, you don't have to!! There are many more natural and healthy substitutes you can use, by buying better products, or making them yourself!! Greening your life is not as hard as you would think! Recommended!
