Book Recommendations?

Options
I find my "Eat This, Not That" books are great for finding low-impact options for things I want to eat when I'm feeling a little deprived. Do any of you use books as tools? What are your favorites?

    God, I love all of the books, I like to read the Abs diet...can be for women, or the original one for men, either one shares important information about what each section of the ABS diet can do for your waistline and how nutrition effects your waistline and hoistic view of your health

    Anything by Michael Pollan is entertaining and enlightening.
    I recently read "Why We Get Fat: and what to do about it" by Gary Taubes and it definitely changed my perspective on weight loss and health!

    Weight Watchers Shortcuts 130 Almost-From-Scratch Recipes cookbook. Most the recipes can be made in 30min or less, taste good, & have inspired me to change some of my own recipes to make them healthier. They also list the nutritional values for every recipe.
