520 1 $a"Mike Gigney delves into the history of the human relationship with food and investigates the ever growing problem of obesity. Debunking exaggerated views and cutting through the mixed messaging Gibney offers scientific-based solutions to this epidemic. The genetics of obesity, the practice of dieting, and the value of physical activity are all thoroughly assessed. The failures of the players in obesity-including the media, scientists, academic organizations, international agencies, specifically the WHO, and the food industry are brought into sharp focus."--Page 4 of cover.
