Obesity continues to accelerate resulting in an unprecedented epidemic that shows no significant signs of slowing down any time soon. The World Health Organization reports that in 2016, nearly 2 billion adults were overweight and that worldwide obesity has nearly tripled since 1975. Obesity: Global Impact and Epidemiology is an important tool in proving a link to new knowledge, serving researchers and clinicians.

Researchers and physicians need new updated information about the epidemiology and global impact of obesity that come from authors that have a wide perspective in the field.

  • Offers practical information about the methodology of epidemiologic studies of obesity
  • Updated important source of information for clinicians and scientists in the field of obesity
