Caroline Carr's book follows her own story of coping with a partner who gradually slid into depression and - eventually - came out of it again. Although their relationship was changed, it survived, and she describes how she felt and the strategies she used to cope. She has talked to many other people whose partners have suffered from depression and she uses these as case studies throughout the book. She also gives a mass of practical advice, some she used at the time and some learnt later, to help others going through the same stressful experience.

Taoists believe that everything in the universe is as it should be, and this belief is carried over into their cuisine. This book attempts to demonstrate how to apply this philosophy in choosing, preparing and eating our food.

This title should appeal to anyone who has an interest in gardening with a spiritual approach and to those with an interest in the application to modern life of traditional Eastern ways of thinking.
