Well! Thin is a State of Mind has been mentioned by Beauty News NYC as a good book to take on a summer vacation!  To quote them, "it's not your typical weight loss book.  Quoting Emerson...she helps guide readers through pitfalls and misconceptions to find sane, successful strategies for maintaining a healthy weight."  In addition to Emerson, the book also quotes Baba Ram Dass, W.H. Auden, Colette, Timothy Gallwey, and scads of other wisdom sources.  Great beach reading!
