    About this ebook

    There’s no denying that the world is FAT, and getting FATTER. In a fascinating search for why so many of us are tipping the scales, registered dietitian and health writer Clare Fleishman discovers that obesity is more than just Big Macs and lack of will power.

    Learn how the world around you affects your weight and discover the surprising answers to questions like

    Can you catch obesity like the common cold?
    Which pollutants make us pack on the pounds?
    Why has the rapid rise in obesity mirrored air conditioner usage?

    With a world-wide scientific approach, this fast-paced analysis examines how unforeseen consequences of modern life have literally re-shaped society. Anyone who ever struggled with weight will find a fresh approach to a stubborn problem, and new solutions to help lighten the load.
