Recensioner i media

This is not just one of the best science books I have read, but one of the best books full stop. It's funny, scholarly, and extremely important. Full of piercing observations, it ruthlessly cuts a path through the wilderness of nutritional nonsense that we have been lost in for so long. It is the first and last book anyone really needs to read on this subject. A spectacular piece of writing that manages to be both fascinating and entertaining in equal measure.
