“Simply Shrimp: Fresh, Frozen & Canned” is a book for cooks. The recipes call for ingredients readily available in any supermarket, the book lays, flat, thanks to cut-and-comb binding, and tabbed divider pages make recipe finding easy. Each divider page has a mouthwatering photograph featuring two or three recipes from each section. There's even a photo with step-by-step directions on how to peel, devein, and butterfly shrimp. Recipe instruction is clear and concise. And while the recipes are simple, there's enough variety to satisfy both beginning and more sophisticated cooks. You'll find dishes ranging from light snacks and soups to elegant meals. The appendix in “Simply Shrimp” is complete. You'll learn how to buy shrimp by the count, and how to economize (serve shrimp in the shell - people tend to eat less!) There's a section on garnishes, and information on the various species you'll find in the seafood case. From an interview with Sonja Connor, MS, RD, the author answers the cholesterol question for once and for all!

Title: Poetry of Pain Subtitle: Poems of truth, acceptance and hope for those who suffer chronic pain “Poetry of Pain” is a unique health/inspirational book that brings validation and hope to chronic intractable pain sufferers. It provides a glimpse into the reality of unending agony, yet is balanced with tender poems, wry humor, and courage. This book is about determination and survival. The author, Linda Martinson, has had a musculoskeletal pain and fatigue disease, fibromyalgia, since 1987. 
“Poetry of Pain” reassures sufferers that they're not alone; it's a book they can share with their partners, family, friends, employers and doctors that explains their emotions in words they may not be able to express themselves. The book is equally suitable for people who suffer mental anguish, such as the pain of divorce or depression, and it provides support for those recovering from alcohol or drug addiction. 
Readers will relate to “Poetry of Pain” in a personal way; it sparks deep feelings and emotions. Ms. Martinson has thoughtfully dedicated space for such reader response in the back of the book under the heading, “Your Thoughts.” There is also a Directory of Chronic Pain Associations for those who seek additional support. This book is for anyone who wants to understand pain and the human response. It is listed as a physician resource for PAIN in the “Journal of the American Medical Association” (Jan.21, 1998, Vol. 279, No. 3), and is one of the sources used to teach medical students doctor-patient communication skills (UCLA, Irvine).
