Publisher's Synopsis
This is an unusual - and unusually interesting - exploration of diet, weight and health that has a memoir aspect and a practical aspect. It's a cut-to-the-chase book that makes you realize not that everything you know about dieting and weight loss isn't true (even though it probably isn't), but that way too much of your brain, your time and your pocketbook has been taken up with the endless (and futile) quest. The authors' two distinct voices thread and play off each other throughout the book as they cover these intensively-researched topics.
