About this book

The Obesity Myth: Why America's Obsession with Weight is Hazardous to Your Health by Campos, Paul. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781592400669.

A provocative exposé of Americas self-defeating war on obesity challenges conventional wisdom regarding the cultural, medical, and political meaning of weight, arguing against the myth that falsely equates thinness with health and explaining why dieting is bad for the health, how the media misinform the public, and the link between racial and body-based prejudice. 35,000 first printing.
