Part biography, part health education, part social commentary, this 132-page paperback explores the candid, controversial life and unconventional pathology skills of noted healer and nutritionist Dr. Sebi. Written in interview style and published on the 20th anniversary of Dr. Sebi's acquittal by the New York Supreme Court, Seven Days in Usha Village: A Conversation with Dr. Sebi, exposes readers to the healer's updated views on health and nutrition as he speaks from his native home Honduras, Central America. Beverly Oliver, the book's editor, tape recorded the seven-day interview in November 2005. She chose excerpts that shed light on Dr. Sebi's 25-year relationship with community activists, political leaders and celebrities, including Michael Jackson and the late hip hop singer Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes. The book also includes Dr. Sebi's relentless appeals to Black Americans specifically, and more broadly the general public, to change generations of harmful food consumption. The book's glossary contains chemical and botanical definitions as well as descriptions of historical figures in music, education, health, religion, and philosophy.

Dr. Sebi Speaks of Dembali, a nonfiction book, while part memoir and instructive, is steeped in the observations of alkaline herbal medicine specialist Dr. Sebi, who was legally named Alfredo D. Bowman. Dembali, a phrase Dr. Sebi coined to address why people reject the good in matters of health, race, family, and culture, is the lens through which he observed these challenges. Dembali is the same lens he viewed solutions, which are embedded in the insightful and thought-provoking narrative of Dr. Sebi Speaks of Dembali. Within the pages he says, "And this is why for us to really get over, get over meaning what, from the state of disease to ease, that jump, that crossing over is called dembali." He introduced dembali and her themes to author Beverly Oliver in Honduras, Central America, surrounded by the rainforest of La Ceiba. In a style reminiscent of a fireside chat, the pair discussed not only his success healing his clients of AIDS, diabetes, and sickle cell anemia, but also the fact that as many have rejected his offerings as have accepted him. So how does he posthumously bring naysayers into an awareness of sustainable health and alkaline nutrition, respectful race and cultural relations, and good family tidings? Dr. Sebi Speaks of Dembali, in seven chapters, offers an answer.

Known as the meat of the vegetable world, mushrooms have their ardent supporters as well as their fierce detractors. Hobbits go crazy over them, while Diderot thought they should be “sent back to the dung heap where they are born.” In Mushroom, Cynthia D. Bertelsen examines the colorful history of these divisive edible fungi. As she reveals, their story is fraught with murder and accidental death, hunger and gluttony, sickness and health, religion and war. Some cultures equate them with the rottenness of life while others delight in cooking and eating them. And then there are those “magic” mushrooms, which some people link to ancient religious beliefs. To tell this story, Bertelsen travels to the nineteenth century, when mushrooms entered the realm of haute cuisine after millennia of being picked from the wild for use in everyday cooking and medicine. She describes how this new demand drove entrepreneurs and farmers to seek methods for cultivating mushrooms, including experiments in domesticating the highly sought after but elusive truffles, and she explores the popular pastime of mushroom hunting and includes numerous historic and contemporary recipes. Packed with images of mushrooms from around the globe, this savory book will be essential reading for fans of this surprising, earthy fungus.
