      abstract = {Obesity is one of the most pressing health issues  affecting our country. This unique volume is the first to  apply behavioral economics-the integration of psychological  and economic knowledge-to the study of eating behavior. The  text demonstrates how this discipline can be used to  understand why it so difficult for individuals to control  their eating habits, and helps readers use this knowledge  to create and improve public health nutrition programs and  policies. The text examines dietary choices and obesity  through a multidisciplinary lens of biological,  psychological, and social factors.},
