Thank you for the information. I am probably going to buy a pressure cooker after pay day.

Tracie,

No, unfortunately there is no macrobiotic bible.

Instead, there are many excellent macrobiotic books and often, different people will tell you their favorites.

For beginners, I first suggest The Self-Healing Cookbook: A Macrobiotic Primer for Healing Body, Mind and Moods With Whole Natural Foods by Kristina Turner

and also Pocket Guide To Macrobiotics by Carl Ferre

The Self-Healing Cookbook, I find to be a easier to read, more gentle approach to macrobiotic cooking and philosophy and Aveline Kushi's Complete Guide fills in most of the details of cooking that Kristina's book misses.

Carl's book put's everything about how to understand and practice macrobiotics in a compact little package that you can carry everywhere with you.

One other book that I suggest beginners get is: THE GREAT LIFE HANDBOOK: a practical guide to Health, Happiness, and Freedom by Denny Waxman .

There are many wonderful macrobiotic books including the ones available at Simply Natural .

Regarding, buying a pressure cooker, please visit the following site:

When you are under a lot of pressure...

Thank you, very much.
