Rating:  - An infomercial for the author's clinic
The book does have some great elements: the detailed diet, acupressure points to massage to increase fertility, inspiring personal stories.

The book lead me to a total lifestyle change:

Rating: - An Inspiring Book
The Tao of Fertility offers sound health advice that is beneficial for everyone, not just for people who are dealing with fertility. It is beautifully written and provides a good balance between Eastern and Western medicine.
