Rating:  Summary: Worthwhile, but overly simplistic Review: As the title says, Last divides overeaters into five categories. Personally, I have found it beneficial to know what makes me want to munch. Also, the book is realistic as it discusses overeating -- not necessarily eating a quart of ice cream at one sitting -- but making poor food choices. Last adds in personal anecdotes both relating to her own experiences and those of former patients. The biggest drawback to the book for me were the remedies. After intriging me by discussing my "reason," Last gives overly simplistic problem-solving advice. For example, she suggests deep breathing for an anxious eater. Yeah, right.
Rating:  Summary: First rate Review: Last's superb guide enables the reader to identify which "eating profile" they fall into, and thereby select the weight-loss strategy appropriate to them. With my wife, who really let herself go quite some time ago, "Remorseless Grazer" covers most of the angles - and to know this is to be prepared. I found it easy to read and well thought out, and we certainly need it after Marjorie ballooned massively over our two week Second Honeymoon.
Rating:  Summary: Life-changing, very important book. Review: Ms. Last has produced an exceptional piece of work on a very important subject...she is to be commended for her very thorough understanding, sincere evaluation and straightforward advice. This book has changed my life...
