Title: The South Beach Diet Cookbook

Synopsis
Arthur Agatston, the cardiologist who invented the popular South Beach diet promoting the awareness of "good" fats and "good" carbs based on the glycemic index, follows up with a book of 200+ recipes. They include Coconut Chicken, Crab Royale, a devastating flourless chocolate cake, and a section on fat-free dips for parties. The diet is intended for quick weight loss, but it is really based on permanently changing the way one eats--and these recipes can be an important step in that direction.
