Apparently, it was typeset by the blind, with four different fonts for each recipe, in a nausea-inducing attempt to be... creative? I'm not sure. Take it from a graphic artist: more than two, at most three fonts on a page is UGLY. In addition, the format used by the previous 500 Recipes, with one recipe on a page, is not used. If you're sensitive to the beauty of a well-laid out book, you will hate this one. I'm sorry I can't comment on the recipes themselves, since I found myself unable to read them, without an immediate headache. Get Carpender's earlier books, or try to see this in the store first. If it doesn't bother you, then you can go ahead and order it from Amazon. 0 of 0 found this review helpful: Great book, 2007-09-18 Dana writes the most useful cookbooks - no pictures but the recipes are easy and delicious. 2 of 4 found this review helpful: Photos would have been nice..., 2007-08-26 Its ok. The main reason I got this cookbook, based on the title, is to avoid excessive sugar, or, hopefully, to cut it out completely. The cookbook offers carbs and useable carbs, as a total, but doesn't list sugars specifically. Also, I would have prefered some photos. Its functional, I would go to this book with a mission or a plan. Its not something I will leisurely look through for ideas. 0 of 0 found this review helpful: very good recipes, 2007-07-27 I am currently on a super low calorie diet when I get off of that this should be very useful in keeping it off 12 of 16 found this review helpful: An average guy, 2007-06-16 While there is some useful nutritional information in this book, I think that the book is misleading in several ways and I don't think it was worth the purchase. It's misleading to title it "every calorie counts" and then tell the reader she in not counting the calories from sugar alcohols used to replace the sugar in many recipes. She claims there is no reliable way to count those calories yet those calories are routinely listed on food labels and the product labels of the sugar alcohol manufacturers. It's also misleading to say there are 500 recipes in the book when many are but small moderations of one master recipe. Do readers really need 6 variations of the cauliflower "mashed potatoes" recipe or 11 variations of the cauliflower rice recipe? It also annoys me that she only included a few baked goods recipes when her previous books had more of them. Further, the book claims that these are recipes "the whole family will love"; yet many of the recipes are not just not mainstream. Do kids really love roasted turnips or cumin mushrooms (or the 6 variations on it)? If you are a low carber or if you have a family to feed and are looking for ways to replace mainstream recipes with healthier alternatives, I think there are better and more creative mainstream books out there, even some of Dana's previous books. I just wanted to post this review because I want others to be aware of what I consider to be shortcomings in this book. I have returned my copy.
