Some of the controversies surrounding obesity can be dismissed as myths, others reveal the lack of consensus and comprehensive knowledge which exist in obesity and its complex relationship with diabetes and other serious long-term conditions. Controversies in Obesity takes the unique approach of assessing the controversies surrounding obesity, thus seeking to debunk the myths and highlight and explore the genuine science, whilst demonstrating areas where there is healthy debate. This book will appeal to primary care physicians, trainees and specialist nurses involved in care of the obese patient, and would be of interest to anyone who wishes to gain a better understanding of the complex nature of obesity and its management. 000697057 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000697057 650_0 $$aObesity. 000697057 7001_ $$aHaslam, David W.,$$eeditor of compilation,$$eauthor. 000697057 7001_ $$aSharma, Arya M.,$$eeditor of compilation,$$eauthor. 000697057 7001_ $$aLe Roux, Carel W.,$$eeditor of compilation,$$eauthor. 000697057 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tControversies in obesity.$$dLondon : Springer, 2013$$z9781447128335$$w(OCoLC)843810614 000697057 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000697057 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4471-2834-2$$zOnline Access 000697057 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:697057$$pGLOBAL_SET 000697057 980__ $$aEBOOK 000697057 980__ $$aBIB 000697057 982__ $$aEbook 000697057 983__ $$aOnline 000697057 994__ $$a92$$bISE
