This book is an absolute must have for anyone interested in starting a paleo lifestyle.  It has a comprehensive overview of how to make the necessary changes.  For folks who are more interested in diving straight into recipes, you can purchase the Whole30: Fast & Easy and Whole30: Slow Cooker books directly without having to read this first.

Since 2009, Melissa Hartwig Urban's critically-acclaimed Whole30 program has quietly led hundreds of thousands of people to effortless weight loss and better health—along with stunning improvements in sleep quality, energy levels, mood, and self-esteem. The program accomplishes all of this by specifically targeting people’s habits and emotional relationships with food. The Whole30 is designed to help break unhealthy patterns of behavior, stop stress-related comfort eating, and reduce cravings, particularly for sugar and carbohydrates. Many Whole30 participants have described achieving “food freedom”—in just thirty days.
