On the previous edition:

"this excellent textbook not only integrates the clinical and practical aspects of obesity as a disease entity but also bridges the gap between the laboratory and the clinic. Clinical Obesity provides easily accessible, updated information together with some predictions about future developments, which will prove very interesting for both clinicians and scientists working in this exciting field."
