I also read "The Paleo Diet" and would recommend it to anyone interested in nutrition.
If nothing else, I think the book offers insight into the possible benefits of a Paleo diet. While I don't agree completely with everything the author suggests I think there is much truth in many of his claims. If free range/grass fed, antibiotic-free, hormone-free meat is available I do believe it is a better choice than grains.
If this meat is too expensive for you, you may want to consider finding a local farmer to buy from rather than the grocery store. In my area there are many farmers who sell their meats at or below what you would pay in the grocery store for meat from grain fed, etc sources. Just look around... there is probably more available than what it may seem.
