About this book
Reviews
From the book reviews:
“This book explores the various causes of obesity and treatments for those who seek help in managing their weight. … This is a useful book for all clinicians, as obesity has far-reaching implications for everyone in the practice of medicine. This is also a tremendous book for lay persons interested in finding understandable explanations about what information out there is accurate. … This is one of the best books on the subject of obesity on the market.” (Vincent F. Carr, Doody’s Book Reviews, February, 2015)
