Since the publication of Living Gluten-Free For Dummies (March 2006), many who needed to avoid gluten for health reasons found a trusted source. There has been a surge in awareness and interest in living a gluten-free lifestyle, and the book quickly became the leading seller in the category. We have since published Gluten-Free Cooking For Dummes, which has also been well received.
