ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I WANT TO THANK MY AGENT, JANIS VALLELY, FOR HER
HEARTFELT CARING FOR me and the Microbiome project. It was her keen
ability to sense new and life-changing ideas that opened the gates for the
publication of this book. Her belief in a down-to-earth, visceral approach to
communication helped transform my approach to the writing of this book and to
writing in general.
I also want to thank Rachel Kranz, without whom this book would never
have come to fruition. Her great writing ability is only surpassed by her uncanny
ability to be able to so swiftly download my ideas and so masterfully encapsulate
them into words that shine. It is such a great privilege to work together with her
on this project and others to come, for she shares my passion to see deeper,
beyond the surface and the status quo, where the dots begin to come together and
a new reality emerges.
I want to thank my marketing team leader Dee Dee DeBartlo. She not only
quickly grasped the diverse ideas and messages of this book and my philosophy
of healing in general and put it into simple words but also so quickly grasped the
feeling and soul from where these ideas come. Working together, she and her
associate, Jillian Sanders, make an insightful, knowledgeable, and powerful team.
I want to thank the brilliant art and website team leader Alexej Steinhardt of
Roundhex and his wonderful studio manager, Tina Rath. As soon as I met them I
just knew that they “get it.”
I am so grateful to Renee Sedliar and the publishing team at Da Capo Press
for publishing The Microbiome Diet. Renee had the foresight to realize that the
microbiome diet represents a critical development in the chain of diet books and
in health generally. Her critical edits brought the book to a new level. I also want
to thank Amber Morris, my project editor at Da Capo, for so capably steering
this book through all the twists and turns of production, and copy editor
Josephine Mariea for her fine editing job. Thanks as well to Kate Burke, the
associate director of publicity at Da Capo, whose efforts helped bring my book
into the public eye. It is a pleasure to work with all of you, and I hope we will
work together on many more books to come.
I want to thank Carole Clark, the chef who worked so hard on this project.
She was so flexible and accommodating—a true team player. Carole made the
microbiome diet approach to eating and cooking accessible to everyone. As you
will see (and taste), she produced one masterpiece after another.
I can’t thank enough my beloved teacher of blessed memory, Rabbi
Brandwein. He taught me the great wisdom of Kabbalah that truly informs and
directs the natural world, and I have come to learn that the knowledge of true
Kabbalah also gives me a bird’s-eye view of science. Just as Newton’s Laws
were influenced by this deep wisdom, my entire approach to medicine and
healing and many of the ideas of this book emerge out of the fabric of the
Kabbalistic worldview.
I want to thank my great friend Eliyahu Alfasi, who was also a student of
Rabbi Brandwein and who has now become my teacher. He and I spent many
hours discussing topics of this book, and he helped me articulate critical ideas.
Who is better suited to be my teacher than the most knowledgeable person in the
world on the Kabbalistic teachings of the greatest Kabbalist, Rabbi Ashlag, a
man who truly lives by these lofty ideas? Who is more suited to be my teacher
than someone who is also fluent in the great ideas of so many of the
philosophers with whom Rabbi Ashlag was in dialogue? Thank you, Eliyahu.
Finally, I want to thank my beautiful wife, Chasya, who gave me the space
and time to write this book. I want to express my deep gratitude to her for being
the person I am not—someone who can oversee and manage big projects and
keep me on track. Janis and Rachel, I am sure, are deeply thankful to her as well!
Chasya all too often did double work in the house and with our children when I
was so busy writing this book. Our life is one together, and therefore, she, in my
mind, is the coauthor of this book.
