I loved it!
I loved this book--it was easy to understand and made a lot of sense. Yes, Dr. Murad is pushing his own product line, and yes, his products are rather costly. However, you get what you pay for, and I don't mind paying the extra money for something that WORKS. His products are the best I have ever used, and since I am not willing to go under the knife to make myself look younger, I will gladly shell out the extra money to improve the appearance of my skin. I have tried many, many skin care products and by far this is the best. So really, if you aren't willing to buy his products this book isn't worth your time and money. But if you want to see dramatic changes in your skin and don't mind paying extra for it then by all means purchase this book!

I would also like to address the comments made by a few others saying that the positive comments must have been made by employees of Dr. Murad's company: I can assure you I am the farthest thing from an employee of his there could be. I am a 40 year old stay-at-home mom who is trying to control not only adult acne, but signs of aging as well. No one has paid me to make this review, I just want to share with others my experience with this skin care line. Besides, all their products come with a 100% money back guarantee; if you decide the products just aren't worth the money then you can return them. You can't do that with a bottle of Oil of Olay.

An esthetician's viewpoint....
There is a lot of useful information in this book; unfortunately, Dr. Murad promotes HIS products at the expense of others. That said, this book was written by Dr. Murad and is "The Murad Method" for ageless skin. I am sure the folks who sell his line find this book helpful to those purchasing his products.

It does work
I found that the book helped break down something so complicated. When you think about all that is out there regarding skin. Q10 this and peptide that. I did not want to do botox or anything like that. I needed something that was clear. While I am not following the diet I have found great results. My skin is smoother, I don't look my age and I love it! It was really an easy commitment to make.

Don't waste your money
This is basically a commercial pitch for Dr. Murad's spas and products. Unless you are planning on buying his regime, he gives very, very scant information about how you could accomplish the program using other, less expensive products.
Don't expect an easy how-to giving you day by day advice of supplements and skin care. It's not here. I decided to buy this based on other's good reviews. Now I'm thinking that they were written by employees. I was very disappointed.

this is a good book - no subliminal marketing in my opinion
Wow. I have to say that after reading a couple of the other reviews on this book, I see that a few people missed the big picture. As a skin care professional myself, I completely understand why Dr. Murad would make the product recommendations he did in his book - it is because his are really the only formulas available right now that are 'complete' formulas to achieving healthy skin. People nowadays have a plethora of products to choose from...the challenge is, how do they choose the right products for their skin problem. Dr. Murad's approach is logical and medically sound. With the information he provides in his book, consumers will hopefully be able to make a more informed decision when it comes to choosing products for their skin. So, I am giving this book 5 stars. (I stumbled upon this book at my local library.)
