This bestseller from leading economist Mariana Mazzucato ï¿½ named by the ï¿½New Republicï¿½ as one of the ï¿½most important innovation thinkersï¿½ today ï¿½ is stirring up much-needed debates worldwide about the role of the State in innovation. Debunking the myth of a laggard State at odds with a dynamic private sector, Mazzucato reveals in case study after case study that in fact the opposite situation is true, with the private sector only finding the courage to invest after the entrepreneurial State has made the high-risk investments. Case studies include examples of the Stateï¿½s role in the ï¿½green revolutionï¿½, in biotech and pharmaceuticals, as well as several detailed examples from Silicon Valley. In an intensely researched chapter, she reveals that every technology that makes the iPhone so ï¿½smartï¿½ was government funded: the Internet, GPS, its touch-screen display and the voice-activated Siri. Mazzucato also controversially argues that in the history of modern capitalism the State has not only fixed market failures, but has also shaped and created markets, paving the way for new technologies and sectors that the private sector only ventures into once the initial risk has been assumed. And yet by not admitting the Stateï¿½s role we are socializing only the risks, while privatizing the rewards in fewer hands. This, she argues, hurts both future innovation and equity in modern-day capitalism. Named one of the ï¿½2013 Books of the Yearï¿½ by the ï¿½Financial Timesï¿½ and recommended by ï¿½Forbesï¿½ in its 2013 ï¿½creative leadersï¿½ list, this book is a must-read for those interested in a refreshing and long-awaited take on the public vs. private sector debate.

ï¿½[H]ands down the most refreshing treatment of the innovation issue to have emerged in a long time.ï¿½ ï¿½ï¿½Science and Public Policyï¿½

ï¿½[A] skillful combination of the history of technology, empirical evidence, and policy analysis [ï¿½] the book contains a critical reading of data and arguments that run counter to established views while never falling short of offering constructive solutions.ï¿½ ï¿½Davide Consoli, ï¿½Scienceï¿½

ï¿½[P]rovides persuasive evidence that governments deserve more credit than private companies for the development of most important modern technologies.ï¿½ ï¿½Edward Hadas, ï¿½Reutersï¿½

ï¿½Mazzucato argues that long-term, patient government funding is an absolute prerequisite for breakthrough innovation. [ï¿½] Even if you disagree with Mazzucatoï¿½s argument, you should read her book. It will challenge your thinking.ï¿½ ï¿½Bruce Upbin, ï¿½Forbesï¿½

ï¿½Conventional economics offers abstract models; conventional wisdom insists that the answer lies with private entrepreneurship. In this brilliant book, Mariana Mazzucato [ï¿½] argues that the former is useless and the latter incomplete.ï¿½ ï¿½Martin Wolf, ï¿½Financial Timesï¿½

ï¿½[A] meticulously argued treatise that shows how unwise our conventional wisdom has become.ï¿½ ï¿½Christopher Dickey, ï¿½Newsweekï¿½

ï¿½In this trailblazing book on the role of government as both a risk-taking funder of innovation and a market creator, Mariana Mazzucato persuasively argues that the government is a key enabler of technological innovations that drive economic growth. [ï¿½] This important book should be read by policymakers, opinion leaders, and others with a stake in funding economic growth.ï¿½ ï¿½' Arnold T. Davis, CFA Institute book review

ï¿½ï¿½The Entrepreneurial State: Debunking Public vs. Private Sector Mythsï¿½ [ï¿½] is a meticulously argued treatise that shows how unwise our conventional wisdom has become.ï¿½ ï¿½Christopher Dickey, ï¿½Newsweekï¿½

ï¿½Makes and engaging, persuasive case in favor of the state, and suggests one recommend it not just as an instrument of market repair but also as a prerequisite for future prosperity.ï¿½ ï¿½J. Bhattacharya, ï¿½Choiceï¿½

ï¿½It is one of the most incisive economic books in years.ï¿½ ï¿½Jeffery Madrick, ï¿½New York Review of Booksï¿½

Review

ï¿½This is a book whose time has come. Mariana Mazzucato documents how the state played a crucial role behind some of the landmark innovations of our time. For many, the ï¿½entrepreneurial stateï¿½ is a contradiction in terms. For Mazzucato, it is both a reality and a requirement for future prosperity.ï¿½ ï¿½Dani Rodrik, Rafiq Hariri Professor of International Political Economy, John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University

ï¿½The principal entrepreneurial drive that has given us many of todayï¿½s most important technologies has come from the state. Most thinking and arguing regarding how to energize our sluggish economies is blind to this fact. Mariana Mazzucatoï¿½s book aims to get us to understand better the sources of entrepreneurship, and to reflect more positively on the role aggressive technology policies can play in getting our economies moving again.ï¿½ ï¿½Richard Nelson, George Blumenthal Professor of International and Public Affairs, Columbia University

ï¿½ï¿½The Entrepreneurial Stateï¿½ delivers a well-researched and elegantly (even entertainingly) written knock-out to the belief across most of the political spectrum and the economics profession that (with some qualifications) ï¿½the market knows bestï¿½. As many governments wonder how to boost the productivity and innovativeness of their industrial sectors, this book provides guidelines ï¿½ based on successful and unsuccessful cases ï¿½ on how to do industrial policy well. Above all, it shows why the common presumption that the state ï¿½ï¿½crowds outï¿½ the private sector ï¿½ as though the private sector is a lion caged by a smothering state ï¿½ is contradicted by what governments of economies from the United States to Brazil and China ï¿½actually do to ï¿½crowd inï¿½ innovations in the private sector.ï¿½ ï¿½Robert Wade, Professor of Political Economy and Development, London School of Economics

Turning Uncertainty into Risk
By R. Albin
This concise and somewhat polemical book is successful effort to argue for a relatively large role for state intervention in fostering economic growth. Mazzucato points to the substantial role of state-led interventions in the development of important techologies. Her analysis goes well beyond the usual discussion of DARPA and the Internet to discuss a broad array of important technologies fostered by the state, particularly the US Federal government. Who knew, for example, that Apple had an SBIR grant in its early years or that Google's original algorithm development was assisted by an NSF grant. Mazzucato lays out the many ways in which Federal and sometimes US state patronage contributed substantially to the development of important, novel technologies. A key point is that these successful efforts go well beyond routine R&D support, tax credits, and educational efforts to active participation at many levels to translating research into successful products. Mazzucato is quite critical, and successfully so, of conventional views of the roles of venture capital and our financial system in general. She captures this quite nicely by describing the role of the state as dealing with Frank Knight's famous concept of uncertainty - only the state can make the sustained investments and create the market environment for novel technologies - in the essentially unpredictable world of science and technology. Only when uncertainty has been transformed into calculable Knightian risk will conventional market mechanisms assist the development of new technologies.

This is very well done but will be familiar to almost anyone with a modest knowledge of the history of technology development in the 20th century. A more novel and very interesting aspect of Mazzucato's argument is her sustained criticism of venture capital and general corporate finance policies in relation to technological innovations. This is an effective critique discussing the general theme of public risk and private profits. She also makes a credible argument that the public should get a better return for its tax supported investments in novel technologies, something that could expand the development of new technologies and foster growth.

Minor defects of this book are over-reliance on technical language common among economists and a couple of unclear arguments related to some of the more technical aspects of economics, notably the critique of conventional growth theory. Strongly recommended.

The Entrepreneurial State by Mariana Mazzucato, review by Mahee Ferlini
By Mahee Ferlini
Interesting analysis on how the state can contribute to long term economic growth especially through investment in research. I found it in line with some of the seminal contributions of Ken Arrow, Dick Nelson, and Keith Pavitt, among the others. However, I would have expected a deeper exploration of the conditions and the rules that can increase productivity and positive externalities of public investment. Moreover, as shown by the cases of Silicon Valley and Cambridge Ma., the US public research system has properties that other national systems of innovation were not able to replicate. So, I would have expected more emphasis on the interplay between competitive, mission oriented, public investment and vibrant market driven innovation dynamics. A good reading in any case.

The state as an essential partner in innovation
By laurens van den muyzenberg
This well researched book proves that most important innovations are based on financing from government. Apple's iPods, iPhones and iPads are presented as one of the examples. The author describes in detail how the government has financed all essential technological innovations used. The author recognizes the genius of Steve Jobs by visualizing an attractive product that people would buy, selecting technologies, and putting them together in a compact beautiful package.

At first sight this appears the way it should be. The government finances technological breakthroughs that are picked up by business. The problem she sees is financing by the government. Governments are pressured to reduce costs and furthermore are accused to be highly inefficient in everything they do. She describes how for example the governments the US, Germany and Denmark invest heavily and effectively in research and development. They act as entrepreneurs taking the highest risks.

She shows that businesses, in the medical electronic and other fields have radically reduced their funding of the more longer term research and development on which breakthroughs depend. Business and venture capitalists are short term orientated. When "innovative" companies are hugely profitable they buy back shares and/or raise dividends but do not invest it in the longer-term future. She presents a lot of statistics to prove this point.

She considers that it is very important for the people at large to recognize the essential role government plays as the fundamental force in innovation. This role goes beyond developing new knowledge. The state in many cases also has to finance the development of a new technology to the point where it is applied and achieve critical mass. The governments is involved in the supply side but in important cases also on the demand side. The government chooses, has to choose, the winners.

The United States is by far the most effective and largest investor in innovation. Many people believe that the free market and entrepreneurs are the driving force in innovation. She refers to this as a "myth" presenting many examples.

Companies in general but especially highly profitable global companies go out of their way to reduce their taxes. Statistics show that these global companies are highly successful on this point. The tax income in addition to being reduced is also not going to the countries that have financed the new technologies that played an important role in generating the profits. She believes it is naive to believe that national governments can enforce tax regulations on global companies and therefore proposes other solutions.

One suggestion is to attach a royalty obligation to a technological innovation. The first buyer, as the public at large financed the innovation, should after a few years of exclusive rights, license other companies to use the innovation. She also refers to government financed development banks that provide financing for the early sages of development. A good example is such a bank in Germany the KfW (www.KFW.de).

She considers the present system as "dysfunctional", where governments take the highest risks and businesses take all the profits being an example where risks are socialized and the profits privatized.

I have worked extensively in this field, both in business and for government. I found this book stimulating to read and recommend it to others. I am however not sure, to what extent, the suggestions can be implemented. I do not doubt the importance and essential role the government plays in financing R&D. That kind of financing and managing, early stage innovation even including the creation of demand can also be seen as a logical task of government. I do agree that it is important that people at large should become more aware of the entrepreneurial role of government in innovation, and the necessity to organize and finance it.

Review
From the reviews: "This book provides a unified introduction to the regression methods listed in the title...The methods are well illustrated by data drawn from medical studies...A real strength of this book is the careful discussion of issues common to all of the multipredictor methods covered." Journal of Biopharmaceutical Statistics, 2005 "This book is not just for biostatisticians. It is, in fact, a very good, and relatively nonmathematical, overview of multipredictor regression models. Although the examples are biologically oriented, they are generally easy to understand and follow...I heartily recommend the book" Technometrics, February 2006 "Overall, the text provides an overview of regression methods that is particularly strong in its breadth of coverage and emphasis on insight in place of mathematical detail. As intended, this well-unified approach should appeal to students who learn conceptually and verbally." Journal of the American Statistical Association, March 2006 "This book is … about regression methods, with examples and terminology from the biostatistics field. It should, however, also be useful for practitioners from other disciplines where regression methods can be applied. … Most chapters end with a Problems section, and a section of further notes and references, making the book suitable as a text for a course on regression methods for Ph. D. students in medicine … . Many of the analyses in the book are illustrated with output from the statistical package Stata." (Göran Broström, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1069, 2005) "The authors have written have written the book with the intention to provide an accessible introduction to multipredictor methods, emphasizing their proper use and interpretation. … In summary it may be said that this book is excellently readable. Because of the … detailed aspects of modeling, the applied tips as well as many medical examples, it can be recommended ... . In addition it can be recommended as background literature for biometrics advisors because of the high didactic quality of the book." (Rainer Muche, ISBC Newsletter, Issue 42, 2006) "The authors have written a very readable book focusing on the most widely used regression models in biostatistics: Multiple linear regression, logistic regression and Cox regression. … The book is written for a non-statistical audience, focusing on ideas and how to interpret results … . The book will be … useful as a reference to give to a non-statistical colleague … ." (Soren Feodor Nielsen, Journal of Applied Statistics, Vol. 33 (6), 2006) "Readership: Biostatistics readers, post-graduate research physicians. … This text is nicely written and well arranged and provides excellent, reasonably brief, information on the selected-topics." (N. R. Draper, Short Book Reviews, Vol. 25 (2), 2005) "This book is designed for those who want to use statistical tools in the biosciences. … It provides an excellent exposition of the application of different tools of regression analysis in biostatistics. … This book can be a bridge between biostatistics and regression analysis … . Survival analysis, repeated measurement analysis and generalized linear models are covered comprehensively. It could be used as a text-book for an advanced course in biostatistics, and it will also be helpful to biostatisticians … ." (Shalabh, Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, Vol. 169 (1), 2006) "The focus is on understanding key statistical and analytical concepts--interpreting regression coefficients, understanding the impact of the failure of model assumptions, grasping how correlation in clustered sample designs affects analysis--rather than on mathematical derivations." (Michael Elliott, Biometrics, December 2006)

From the Back Cover
This new book provides a unified, in-depth, readable introduction to the multipredictor regression methods most widely used in biostatistics: linear models for continuous outcomes, logistic models for binary outcomes, the Cox model for right-censored survival times, repeated-measures models for longitudinal and hierarchical outcomes, and generalized linear models for counts and other outcomes. Treating these topics together takes advantage of all they have in common. The authors point out the many-shared elements in the methods they present for selecting, estimating, checking, and interpreting each of these models. They also show that these regression methods deal with confounding, mediation, and interaction of causal effects in essentially the same way. The examples, analyzed using Stata, are drawn from the biomedical context but generalize to other areas of application. While a first course in statistics is assumed, a chapter reviewing basic statistical methods is included. Some advanced topics are covered but the presentation remains intuitive. A brief introduction to regression analysis of complex surveys and notes for further reading are provided. For many students and researchers learning to use these methods, this one book may be all they need to conduct and interpret multipredictor regression analyses. The authors are on the faculty in the Division of Biostatistics, Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, University of California, San Francisco, and are authors or co-authors of more than 200 methodological as well as applied papers in the biological and biomedical sciences. The senior author, Charles E. McCulloch, is head of the Division and author of Generalized Linear Mixed Models (2003), Generalized, Linear, and Mixed Models (2000), and Variance Components (1992).

Nice coverage of important topics for biostatisticians
By Michael R. Chernick
The authors say that they created this book to fit with a course they taught at UC San Francisco to medical students. The book is very sophisticated and a great reference source for practicing biostatisticians in industry or research. It surprises me a little that they find it effective for there non-technical audience. Although the topics are technical and many are advanced they do cover it in a conceptual way without heavy mathematics but still requiring some statistics classes as prerequisite.

Regression does not cover all the techniques of biostatistics but as the authors point out the four topics in the subtitle are among the most important. I know this from my many years of experience as a bisostatistician in the medical device and pharmaceutical industries. They use many good practical examples useing many of the common variables studies in many clinical trials where physical exams are given to record blood pressure and other vital signs and chemistry labs are done to determine cholesterol levels and other things that can be factors in various diseases. Also glucose levels are very important to monitor for diabetes trials.

In addition to the standard topics general estimating equations and generalized linear models are covered and where appropriate bootstrap confidence intervals. There is even a chapter on complex surveys a topic important when quality of life is an endpoint and survey instruments are used to measure it.

In the survival analysis chapter the Kaplan-Meier curves, log rank tests and Cox proportional hazards models are covered as expected but the authors go further to include extensions of the Cox model when the proportional hazards assumption fails. My only disappointment is that there is no coverage of actuarial life tables. At the medical device companies that I worked for it was common to get interval data on events rather than continuous data and then the Cutler-Ederer life table method is the analog for interval data to the Kaplan-Meier estimator for continuous data.

The book covers many topics but is concise as the authors claim. The authors provide a lot of examples that they work out using the statistical package Stata. The authors claim that Stata is the package of choice for biostatistics. This may be the case in academic settings but is certainly not the case in the pharmaceutical industry where SAS is used almost exclusively. I think that it would have been better to show how to write the computer code for solving these problems both in SAS and Stata. To the authors credit Stat is a very good package for their purpose and they do at times mention SAS and SPSS which are the other two major statistical packages used in industry.

All in all this is a very good book that is worth its list price. I will use it as a reference. it also contains a very nice bibliography of 9 pages.

very good book, compact but comprehensive
By Student_PhD
This book covers a wide range of topics in Biostatistics, in a comprehensive, but not overwhelming way. In my opinion this book has the potential of being useful to a broad audience, from Statisticians to other professionals who do health related research.

Regression Methods in Biostatistics: Linear, Logistic, Survival, and Repeated Measures Models
By J. Wong
Regression Methods in Biostatistics is clearly a very well-organized book, covering topics from simple linear regression theory and methods, to the more complex survival analyses. The material is especially recommended for students who have just completed introductory biostatistics and statistical programming, and are looking for practical applications of their skills (of course, for those looking for more thorough practice, it is recommended that those individuals take more advanced biostatistics courses). Relevant examples are abundant throughout the chapters, and the authors are also very thoughtful in providing a website ([...]) where one is able to download the data (in all types of files) used in all the examples in the book, as well as for the practice problems. One drawback to this book, however, is the authors' reliance on only STATA to present the modeling examples; this is incredibly useful for primarily STATA users (the authors provide tips on STATA codes) but not particularly helpful for SAS users, for example (though it is certainly not a very huge learning barrier).

Plein Air Painting
By JT
There is no question that Curtis's technical ability is excellent. Many, many photos prove this. I was, however, disappointed in the gray, dullness of many of the paintings. I think this is due to the fact that he starts many of them with grayed paper and washes. I usually take 5 or 6 pages of notes to remember salient points. With this book I took 1/2 page as he kept repeating the same things over and over in a different way. Proving his point with examples of paintings. It is an excellent book for watercolorists as he demos some step-by-step paintings. And as I said his technical skill is par none.

Too much repetition, not enough information on palette and technique
By Robert A. Hicks
I chose this book because I love his use of palette and brush work, also the English landscape subject matter. I was very disappointed after reading the book how little David divulges of his actual palette and start to finish technique. He repeats the same mantra over and over with very little new insight after the first couple of chapters. It is a beautiful book but not what I expected, I purchased his book "Painting with Impact" at the same time and felt the same about it.

Disappointing
By Reviewer
The positive: There are a lot of nice color reproductions of paintings, and a few insights into the workings of a seasoned pro.

The negative: There's a lot of repetition and self-aggrandizement, and very little practical advice.

In the end, it doesn't sum up to much of real use to a painter looking to improve his or her plein air technique. I hate to say it, but it comes out feeling like the main thrust of his advice is, "If you want to succeed at plein air painting, you have to be a good plein air painter, like me."

He tells you that you should get out there and paint outdoors, and that in order to succeed at doing so, you must be quick and confident, and know what you are doing, which comes from lots of experience. He tells you that the main focus of plein air landscape painting is to capture the mood or the feeling of a place, and so you should do that. He gives very few practical clues as to how to go about it, other than to just get out there and do it.

You should look for a good composition, consider the scale and format of what you are going to paint, the tonal and color keys, etc. Don't rush into the painting. But then don't NOT rush into the painting, because time is not on your side. You need to get right in there and make the main statement as quickly as you can. It takes lots of confidence and skill.

That pretty much sums up what advice he does give. Even the step-by-step breakdowns reveal little of his working process, other than the basic order in which he did each painting. The text ends up amounting to essentially, "I get in there and start slapping washes on the paper, dipping my brush into a lot of pre-mixed things, until I have blocked everything in. Then I go back and resolve details."

I gather that the author is a good landscape painter with a lot of experience, that he has reached a point where he works in a very fast, intuitive, and holistic way, and that, upon being asked to explain how he paints, he is at a loss to say much about it. I think that's all perfectly fair, but then why write "how-to" books on the subject?

Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride set up The Cambridge Nutrition Clinic in 1998. As a parent of a child diagnosed with learning disabilities, she is acutely aware of the difficulties facing other parents like her, and she has devoted much of her time to helping these families. She realized that nutrition played a critical role in helping children and adults to overcome their disabilities, and has pioneered the use of probiotics in this field. Her willingness to share her knowledge has resulted in her contributing to many publications, as well as presenting at numerous seminars and conferences on the subjects of learning disabilities and digestive disorders. Her book Gut and Psychology Syndrome captures her experience and knowledge, incorporating her most recent work. She believes that the link between learning disabilities, the food and drink that we take, and the condition of our digestive system is absolute, and the results of her work have supported her position on this subject. In her clinic, parents discuss all aspects of their child's condition, confident in the knowledge that they are not only talking to a professional but to a parent who has lived their experience. Her deep understanding of the challenges they face puts her advice in a class of its own.

Healing my CFS/adrenal fatigue
By AndreaP.
WOW. This book is outstanding. Others have reviewed the book's content, and they do it far better than I could. So, instead, I'll attest to the healing power of this diet.

Over a year and a half ago, I became sick. Super sick. So sick I was unable to get out of bed. I eventually realized my adrenal glands were shot. So I quit my job and school and took time off, expecting to recuperate within a few months. Ha.

I researched and researched, pouring over everything I could read online. I had a Candida infection (resulting from allopathic drugs) that never went away. I'd literally feel poisoned, especially after eating. My immune system was a mess. I had zero energy. I suffered severe chemical and mold sensitivities and began to develop hives. I started developing arthritis in my knees and fingers. Some days it was so bad it prevented me from knitting/crocheting, two of my favorite pasttimes. I experienced constant congestion and back-to-back sinus infections. My body was in terrible shape. I'm not a dramatic person by nature, but I assure you, some days I wasn't sure how much sicker one could get before the body just gave up altogether. I kept getting weaker and more exhausted by the day. For months, I didn't leave the house. For the record, I'm 32 years old. (Mind-blowing, isn't it?) After several months of research and trial and error, I discovered the adrenal issues were a symptom of a much larger problem - severe leaky gut and gut dysbiosis.

If the preceding paragraph sounds like hyperbole to you, I can't say I blame you. Before my experience, I'd have been skeptical too. I had been preparing to study biochemistry in grad school. Before I became ill, I thought chronic illnesses and autoimmune diseases could merely be 'managed.' In blind faith, I had accepted what the medical establishment tells us. That was fine, until the medical establishment failed me...repeatedly. I gave up on allopathic medicine and knew it would be my responsibility to heal myself. As much as this illness has consumed me, it really was a true wake-up call. A blessing in disguise.

So I researched. Boy, did I research. I took vitamin/mineral supplements. I got my detox pathways up and running again, as per Dr. Myhill's methylation protocol. I followed her advice for supporting mitochondrial health. I started eating meat. I had been a vegetarian for 16 years, but I was so sick I had no difficulty adjusting to eating meat again. In fact, I craved it. Things improved slightly, but my quality of life was still abysmal.

Finally, a few months ago I happened upon some website extolling the GAPS diet. I looked into it but figured I was already eating a clean (mostly) paleo diet, so I didn't need to buy this book. I didn't think it was that different from what I was already doing. When I had to stay home on Christmas day because I felt so toxic and crummy, I decided to purchase the book.

So, sure I had already eliminated processed foods and gluten. But I still ate cheese everyday. I still ate sweet potatoes and oats. I still ate a lot of fiber. This book showed me the error of my ways. These things are fine for a healthy gut. But my gut was a complete wreck and needed special help. More importantly, this book showed me what I WASN'T eating that I needed to be eating: lots of bone broth and marrow, organ meats, and lots of ferments, amongst other things.

I started following the GAPS diet intro on January 1st of this year. The first two weeks were brutal. I had been toxic for so long that I was used to feeling lousy, but the die-off this diet produced was intense. In the book, she stresses the importance of managing die-off; but, because I was so toxic, there was really little I could do. The diet alone, even without the introduction of probiotics, sauerkraut, and kefir was enough to produce rapid die-off.

Then early last week, it was like the fog broke. Gradually, I started having more energy. I announced to my shocked boyfriend that I wanted to go for a walk in the park like we used to do. We did. I suffered no repercussions from it, whereas before GAPS it would have taken me days to recover. I now go for a 30-45 minute walk nearly every day. I can't stress how utterly amazing this is. I prayed that GAPS would help me. It was my last resort. However, I never expected it to work this quickly. Truth be told, I'm still stunned.

I'm nowhere near fully recovered. I've still got toxins circulating. I still feel die-off, but it is nowhere near what it once was. True, I take other supplements. However, since starting GAPS I have stopped taking the majority of my supplements, simply because I no longer need them. At long last, my diet is providing the nutrients my body has been needing all along for repair (particularly cholesterol and saturated fats, which are sadly demonized in our culture). I probably sound like a crazy person because I'm so, so excited about this book and this diet; but if you're sick like I was, you know all too well what it's like to live in a chronically ill body. I don't know what percentage of CFS is caused by gut dysbiosis, but I know that mine was. If yours is, this is, without a doubt, the diet to follow.

Because I'm having such rapid success on the intro phase, I intend to stick with it for a few months. Some people fly through it in a matter of days before starting full GAPS. That's the nice thing about this diet; you move at your own pace and let your body be the guide.

I'm also curious to see how this diet helps me with the mental health issues I've contended with since childhood (namely fits of debilitating anxiety, ocd, and depression that have become increasingly severe in the last few years). I had tried several SSRI's over the last ten years until a new doctor put me on Adderall (which is nothing more than a mixture of amphetamine salts and is very, very hard on the adrenals) after diagnosing me with ADHD. The SSRI's never worked. I'd be happy if GAPS prevents my anxiety from getting worse, but truly I'd love to see the anxiety eliminated permanently. At this point I have no expectations. After all, I've lived with the anxiety for 30 years. But if anything can help, I firmly believe it'll be this diet.

This book saved me. Reading success stories of people recovering from CFS is what got me through the worst moments. I hope my story does the same, and I will update again in a few months as I progress along my GAPS journey. I wish you all the best of health.

UPDATE 4/10/12: Spring has sprung here. I no longer seem to be affected by pollen, which in previous years gave me terrible allergies and sinus infections. In fact, I have not had a sinus infection in months. The arthritis symptoms are completely gone. I've lost 15 pounds and walk an hour or more just about daily in addition to my chores around the house. Also, for the last 3 months my monthly cycle has been just that (cyclical). In the 20 years I've been menstruating, I've NEVER once had a regular cycle. Now it's literally every 28-29 days. There has been no improvement on the mental stuff yet; in fact, the die-off seems to be temporarily making it much worse.

UPDATE 3/1/13: I've been on GAPS for over a year now, with no deviation. No cheating whatsoever. I can honestly say I don't miss any of the "normal" food that I used to eat. This stuff is just so nutrient-dense that I don't ever think of eating anything else. And I used to literally be addicted to sugar. So, that's pretty cool. As to my progress - physically, I'm not much stronger than I was six months ago. But I'm still light-years ahead of where I was two years ago. Still taking walks, doing chores, knitting, able to function like a human being. I'm experiencing new die-off symptoms (caused by breaking up biofilm in my gut with probiotics and systemic enzymes, I believe) like visual disturbances, rosacea and other rashes, adrenaline rushes, numbness/tingling/burning in my extremities. Apparently, these things are all typical for Candida overgrowth. I'm not surprised that I haven't experienced more physical improvement. My Candida infection was/is quite severe, and I've always anticipated that it would take several years to recover. Happily, though I am able to report a significant improvement in my mental well-being. My depressive episodes started to lift just a few months into GAPS, and now they are all but gone. My favorite improvement by far, however, has been with my anxiety and panic attacks. It took about a year, but they are about 85% gone, at this point. I can't tell you how wonderful it feels to have some relief from this torment for the first time in over ten years (most of my adult life).

It should be obvious, but in case it's not, this protocol is not (nor does it claim to be) a quick-fix. I've had gut dysbiosis (and many, many rounds of antibiotics) since birth. It takes a long time to undo decades' worth of damage. The diet is only the base, although Dr. Natasha says that for many GAPS folks, the diet alone is enough. In my case, after the infection is gone, I will still need to detox, fix my adrenals completely, get my metabolic hormones back in order, and perhaps chelate. I have no delusions about how long this is going to take.

Thanks to all of you who have commented or contacted me over the past year; it's been wonderful swapping stories and information. I'm very grateful to you all. Here's to continued healing! :)

UPDATE 11/13/13: A lot of healing occurred this year. A lot. I now walk 4-5 miles almost everyday. I am doing so much more than I have in the last few years. I am still quite toxic but can now tolerate an infrared sauna, which is great for detox, every other day. (My adrenals were too weak, and I was so toxic my body could not handle it before.) The little things that used to require so much effort are back to being a routine part of my life, i.e. doing my hair, wearing make-up, etc. I feel more like my old self than I have in a long, long time. Occasionally, I feel even better than I remembered. There are still periods every few weeks of fatigue and die-off, where my IBS symptoms act up, anxiety and brain fog skyrocket, and I feel rough. But I haven't had one panic attack! What I (and my fella) are most excited about is I actually get to celebrate the holidays this year! I missed out on them the past two years, so I'm making up for that. Lots of GAPS baking and so forth. I have read most of the other reviews here, and I am so happy about and moved by how much this diet is helping people with chronic, so-called "untreatable" conditions. My thoughts are with all of you, and I want to wish everyone happy holidays!

Good....but......
By utopiachick
I struggled with whether to rate this book with 3 stars or 4 stars. I wound up going with 4 stars.

My daughter and I started the diet in October 2012. We have been on the diet for 1 year now. We started from a point where we were already eating commercialized "organic" food. My daughter did eat meat prior to us starting the diet. But I had been a vegetarian for over 20 years. I initially picked up this book because it had been getting discussion on an autism parenting group that I belong to. I started to learn about the diet by reading information online, then decided it was potentially worth pursuing further and purchased the book. The intention was to try the diet for my daughter, who had just turned 7 at the time we started the diet. Even though I had been a vegetarian for so many years, I wanted to support her by doing the diet with her.

However, as I read the book, I realized that I needed to try this diet for my own issues as well, extreme PMS and major digestive issues (which turned out to be ulcerative colitis, as diagnosed via colonoscopy 3 months after I had started the diet).

We started the full diet with the larger variety of food in October. We started the restrictive, elimination portion of the diet (Intro Diet) the 2nd half of December. A year later and we are still in what I would consider to be Intro Diet. Not due to obvious food reactions (still haven't figured out anything specific we might be sensitive to). We eat almost everything on the full diet other than the Navy Beans and Lentils. However, we don't eat honey other than rarely. And only have 2 small portions of low sugar fruit per day. We are both still struggling with yeast overgrowth. There are a few other foods we typically don't eat much of either, based on working with a Nurse Practitioner who is also GAPS Certified.

A year into the diet and not one of my daughter's autism symptoms is better. However, there have been other issues that have disappeared. She used to have consistently rashy private parts. She has been to a number of medical doctors and had the area swabbed and analyzed numerous times resulting in being told "some girls just get that" and being told to use anything from vaseline to diaper rash cream to being given a prescription for anti fungal cream or being told to use over the counter anti fungal cream. When we started the diet in October, the rash started to become more intermittent. A week after starting Intro Diet, the rash disappeared. We haven't seen it since.

My daughter was sick with strep throat multiple times a year as well as extreme sinus issues. She was on multiple rounds of antibiotics each year. But the sinus issues were just getting worse. The doctors were urging us to have her tonsils and adenoids removed, yet could not guarantee that would solve the issue. A few weeks after starting the full diet, we started to see improvement in the sinus issues. They disappeared a few weeks after starting Intro Diet. This summer, my daughter came into direct skin to skin contact with at least 2 children that wound up having strep throat. She never got it.

I have no doubt that this diet has helped improve her immune system. But has not helped with the autism.

As for me, I used to get sick a lot too. I have been less sick. After I got my colitis diagnosis, I held off taking the medication for 4.5 months, thinking that the diet would "cure" me. Well, I got worse and worse to the point where all I was eating was broth and chicken and fats. I couldn't tolerate anything else and was looking like a walking skeleton. I was very weak and barely functioning. I wound up going on the colitis medication, which helped some. And then I recently started a high dose of prescription probiotics, which has helped even more. I believe in my heart that the diet is helping me (as I haven't been sick with contagious illnesses like I was before). But as far as healing the colitis, I needed additional support. I don't know if the diet will heal the colitis. I am certain that if I was eating a Standard American Diet, I'd be worse off. And it is possible with the support of the medication and probiotics, as well as some other more targeted things I'm doing, maybe I will heal and not need the medication at some point in the future.

So these are the reasons why I wound up giving this diet book 4 stars. The reason why I would give this book only 3 stars is for the tone of the book. The book leads you to believe that this is a miracle cure. The book's tone is that this diet so simple and easy. And it is not. This diet is HARD. It is a LOT of work. I spend huge amounts of time in the kitchen day and night. Just for my daughter and me, I typically have 3 loads of dishes in the dishwasher throughout the day, plus all the things that need to be hand washed. When we were on Intro Diet, I would have between 3 and 5 loads of dishwasher dishes going plus all the things that had to be hand washed. Of course, some of that is also due to my daughter not necessarily eating the same thing in the same way week after week. If it were just me, I wouldn't necessarily be spending the extra time on some of the things I do for her, being that she is a child. However, I know a few adults that are on this diet without the considerations of a child, and they also complain about the work it takes, and the several loads of dishes to clean each day. There are some concepts in the book that are not entirely clear, such as information on dairy, and that all of the nut based recipes are very supplemental (a lot of people tend to over do it with eating nut butter/nut flour "treats").

The diet book, as all diet books would be, is generic. Which is another reason that this is not a one size fits all diet. This is why, after starting the Intro Diet (about 4 months total of being on GAPS), I sought out the expertise of an actual medical practitioner who also had GAPS Certification. Somebody with actual medical training, knowledgeable about this diet is very difficult to find. And very costly as well, and not often covered by medical insurance. However, I recognized that we needed more customized information, backed by medical testing. I wish that Dr. Natasha (author of GAPS Diet), would stress that it can be beneficial to seek out additional, more personalized medical advice. The book is presented as if you do these steps in this order, most people will be cured.

The book itself is not a stand alone resource either. There is an additional website with more up to date information that needs to be checked fairly often for updates. For instance, when we first started this diet and even at the beginning of the year, there was no mention about the possibility of needing to stay on Stage 2 of Intro Diet for 6+ months. So now we have moved so far along on the diet and I looked back at that FAQ and Dr. Natasha is now claiming that for certain things, you will need to stay on Intro Diet for 6+ months. How in the world do you explain to an 8 year old child who has been slowly going through Intro Diet and has been doing this for a year that you are going to have to backtrack and spend 6+ months only eating broth, boiled meats and boiled vegetables, and raw egg yolks. The answer is that you can't. So why wasn't this information either in the book or in the FAQ section 6 months ago? This diet is very emotional and I find that even being farther along on it that I tend to have low morale with all the work and being exhausted with it. Children on this diet are are continuously exposed to situations where other kids are eating all kinds of things they can not eat and some kids even get teased/bullied for their healthy food. I could see being able to backtrack or even first stay in Stage 2 of Intro if you have a very young child like toddler aged or maybe even up to age 3 or 4 and who is at home all day and not in child care or preschool. Or if the child is old enough to perhaps make some serious decisions on their own (don't know at what age that would be...junior high??? high school???). When we initially started this diet, the information was to move through the stages once you no longer see "reactions" or symptoms improve. So for my daughter, she moved through the first few stages on the diet rather swiftly. With staying in Stage 3, 4, 5 for longer periods. A few weeks in Stage 3, many weeks in Stage 4, and several months in Stage 5. We added in new foods one at a time and waited 4 to 7 days in between introducing anything new. At times I wasn't sure if there was a reactions, so I would remove an item, not add anything new for at least a week, and then retry that food item. And now all of the sudden the information is that if certain things have not improved, go back and stay in Stage 2 for 6+ months. I would say that is a rather major piece of information that should have been communicated sooner rather than later.

So to sum things up, the book is absolutely vital to starting the diet. However, the diet may or may not help and certainly might still not cure. Try to seek out knowledgeable medical opinion with a practitioner either certified in GAPS or familiar with it and get personalized advice and appropriately targeted medical testing. Realize that the book is not "stand alone" and stay current with the supplemental information located online:
[...]
[...]

Lastly, the book draws heavily from the SCD (Specific Carbohydrate Diet), so it is sometimes beneficial for some people to read the SCD book. And, it is important to know that the diet also draws heavily from Traditional Dietary guidelines as put forth by the Weston A. Price Foundation (google that), along with the cookbook Nourishing Traditions (can be found on amazon). If you are having a difficult time sourcing pure foods, you can contact a Weston A. Price Foundation chapter leader (as listed on their website). Another good resource is Paleo Diet. Although not specifically addressing the same issues, there are many more Paleo blogs with recipes online than GAPS. Paleo recipes sometimes require some easy modification of either leaving out an ingredient or two or substituting. Good luck....

This just makes so much sense.
By E. Kerby
My husband on his own discovered a lot of these same principles and healed himself a few years ago. When we heard about this, we were surprised with how much the GAPS diet had in common with what he was doing.

Now, I've ordered the book and I've read a lot of it and it really makes sense. I am planning to start the diet and see if it can help me in a variety of ways.

The book contains a lot of research and good information, and it seems very credible. The information is presented in a way that makes sense to non-scientists.

If you're new to this, there is a series of YouTube videos with the author, and that is worth watching. (There are also many before & after videos of people who have done this program.) There is also a really interesting set of videos and an interview on the CHEESESLAVE blog; you can Google that.

I had waited to buy the book, because it is fairly expensive, but I am really glad that I bought it. After I started actually reading the book, I ordered a second copy to give to a friend of mine who has an Autistic child. I hope she will read it.

This book doesn't suggest anything magical; it does take time and work to prepare food that is good for us, BUT I think these principles are correct, and I think this will be worthwhile.

EDIT 7/31/11: Also, I noticed Amazon lists this book as out of print, but it is not. You order it through the author's website, and it cost me $35 including shipping (in the US).

EDIT 1/18/12: I realized I never updated my review to let people know whether I have seen any benefit from the GAPS diet. I have! I did the diet last summer and fall, primarily to hopefully help with my ADHD. After about 3 weeks of the full diet (I skipped the intro diet) I started to see some improvement in my ability to focus, and after about 6 weeks my improvement was very obvious to my husband and I. I just kept getting so much done! Then, I got pregnant, and I had pretty bad morning sickness all day every day, so I stopped doing GAPS and switched to the "Things that sound like they won't make me nauseous Diet". Now, it's been a few months and my morning sickness is gone. I think most of the benefit I saw from GAPS is gone too, which is not surprising, since 1 1/2 - 2 years is the recommended amount of time to see lasting results, and I only did it for a few months. Now I am planning to start back up on GAPS again, though, to help me with my attention again, and because it's probably the best thing I can do for this baby.
