I usually hate to be so harsh about publications, that no matter how poorly written, someone has worked hard to create. However, considering this book appears to be a compilation of PsychologyToday articles strung together in an hour on Microsoft Word, I reserve the right to be as harsh as I wish.
This "book" only costs $2 on the Kindle Store and even then, it shouldn't have been that much.
This "book" would be better described as a pamphlet at only 52 pages long and only actually contained - and I'm not exaggerating here - a couple of pages (in size 18 Verdana font) on how diet can affect Bipolar 2 Disorder, even though that's supposedly what the "book" is about, according to it's title.
The rest of it was extremely basic information on what BP2 is, that even the most uninformed layman has heard about the disorder through the grapevine. Even if he hadn't, it's all available in less than a second, for free, from a Google Search.
If you wanted to Google the couple of studies the author mentions, it might take you slightly longer, because she makes no citations.
The reason I'm so offended by this book is because frankly, who is Heather Rose? She's certainly not a mental health professional. Is she a bipolar patient? Is she an 11 year old who wrote a book report on Bipolar 2 and diet, and her proud psrents then had this "book" made available on Kindle so that they could brag about having an "author" as a child? All are viable options in my opinion.
Unless you're a trained medical professional, you should not be writing books about mental disorders.
In all honestly, I genuinely believe any reviewer who has written a positive review so far, has been paid off by the author/others surrounding the author, because this book is just simply not good.
Do yourself a favour. Save your $2, don't bother with this "book".

Not what I thought it was going to be. Also there were several grammatical errors.

Surprising facts how diet may have an effect on your bipolar 2 and how a right bipolar diet and nutritional plan can dramatically turn your life around now. Good read.
