Review
"This unique and comprehensive textbook on obesity has a distinctly international flavor and should be considered mandatory reading for any medical subspecialist or primary care physician who takes care of patients who are obese." (The New England Journal of Medicine, 2006 (on the second 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 acessible, updated information together with some predictions about future developments, which will prove very interesting for both clinicians and scientists working in this exciting field." (Obesity Matters (on the first edition))
"Less than a fifth of the book is taken up by basic science, the rest is about how to investigate and manage the obese patient. It is written by active clinicians and scientists and offers solid dogmatic advice rather than being a text with every fact referenced. I have enjoyed having it on my desk and will continue to thumb through it." (Family Practice (on the first edition))
