The information in this book is good for my research because it states varies aspects of obesity. Compared to other book that I have read, this one has a clear point of view on the topic of obesity. It also does not state that individuals are simply lazy and fat. They go into depth of how and why obesity occurs. Also, a big part of obesity is a diet. In the book, it states in chapter six there are three ways to change people's eating habits. One way is to change an individual's habits. Secondly, is to take in consideration heredity and jeans, which can be changed. Third is to change a whole population. For instance the authors gives an example of school lunch.
