Good advice on taking care of mother earth and yourself
I reviewed several environmentally focused books and chose to purchase copies of this one as my Christmas gift to family members. It covers not only issues related to walking gently on this earth but also advice on selecting products that support the health of you and your loved ones. All in a readable and practical manner. In each of the gift bags I'm not only placing a copy of the book but also a few of the products it recommends either specifically by name or by type, e.g. organic tea. Subtracted one star 'cause she gets a little preachy at points, but overall provides excellent information and advice. I purchased most of the multiple gift copies through eBay with ratings from "like new" to "very good." Was not disappointed in any of them.

Don't expect a clear understanding
Levine is a highly regarded Jewish scholar of the New Testament, and I was looking forward to reading one of her books. This one was a disappointment. My Sunday school class chose it for discussion. We are a college educated and fairly liberal group; one is a retired sociology professor. There are nine stories. We struggled through four of them and called it quits. Comments: she goes in circles, she makes mountains out of molehills, its pedantic, she could have said that more clearly in half the space, she contradicts herself, it's boring, etc. I expected more insight into Jewish culture and thought in Jesus' time; instead it appeared more like a lawyer arguing a case by presenting evidence over and over again from different perspectives -- most seemed like straw men that she then proceeded to dismiss. I personally did not get any clear insight into the four parables we discussed based on her book. In fact, our group thought we understood the parables better before we read her book.

Good drying rack
Pros: good quality, holds a larger number of items than many racks, doesn't take up too much space in my laundry room; smooth rods don't snag garments, easy to move
Con: I've been unable to collapse it for storage next to the washer -- not as easy as described, and I've just left it standing
