I actually like her.... I just don't read the parts that bother me.
If I didn't read every book because of the author's viewpoint, I wouldnt be
very well read. (grin). When this book first came out the ideal woman was
thin and less health and more body conscious.... She made a revision but
I'm not certain when the last revision took place. I have an excellent
herbal that about a third tends to be a tad too religious for my viewpoint
-- for others -- it would fit.... I just don't deal with those parts.
