Summary: Press review of The Sensitive Gourmet
Review: "I have found a cookbook with such mouthwatering wheat-, dairy- and gluten-free recipes that your dinner guests will never know the difference... The Sensitive Gourmet is positive proof that food intolerances do not mean you have to miss out on delicious treats" Susan Clark reviewing The Sensitive Gourmet in The Sunday Times color magazine (London)

Summary: Wonderful!
Review: This is a very attractively presented book, but it didn't live up to my expectations. Most of the recipes are for things which don't usually contain gluten or dairy anyway, like roasts, fish, salads and soups. So it's not much of a reference for those times when you think "hmm, how can I make [name of dish] without [forbidden ingredient]"? The ingredients are a bit *too* gourmet for busy families or single people, so it's not likely to see much use as a "what to make for dinner?" cookbook, either. If you're planning a fancy dinner party and don't own any cookbooks, this might be worth buying. But I'd happily trade my copy for a good Italian or Thai cookbook, or Mark Bittman's "How to Cook Everything" (most of his recipes are already wheat- and dairy-free).
