520 8  "Why are we losing the war against obesity and chronic 
       disease? This is the simple question Peter Gluckman and 
       Mark Hanson ask, exploring the dominant myth that the 
       exploding epidemic of obesity, heart disease, and diabetes
       can be tackled by focusing on adult life styles. 
       Addressing the flawed approach of the weight-loss industry,
       they explain why a continued focus simply on diet and 
       exercise will fail. Highlighting the implications of the 
       growing burden of these problems in the developing world, 
       they show that the scientific enterprise ignores the 
       reality of the social, cultural, and biological 
       determinants that make different populations and people 
       respond differently to living in the modern nutritionally 
       rich world. Gluckman and Hanson review the overwhelming 
       scientific evidence that much of the problem emerges in 
       early life and even before birth, identifying that to 
       address these issues requires considering development in 
       two dimensions -- a life course approach and addressing 
       the developmental challenges of countries emerging through
       the socioeconomic transition. Asking why the major global 
       bodies and vested interests fail to consider these 
       dimensions and continue with failed approaches, they 
       conclude by discussing the complex interactions between 
       health and the food industry, and suggest that the food 
       industry must be co-opted as an ally in this battle, 
       providing a clear pathway forward"--Provided by publisher.
