A timely, valuable volume on a critical issue. . . Highly recommended.’ -- E.P.

It will aid any country concerned about this burden in defining public policies aimed at altering current trends.’ -- Julio Frenk, Harvard School of Public Health, US ‘The positive message of this book is that the obesity epidemic can be successfully addressed by comprehensive strategies involving multiple interventions directed at individuals and populations.’ -- Ala Alwan, World Health Organization ‘This innovative and well-researched book combines insights from a wide range of disciplines. It provides a clear exposition of the evidence that policy makers need to take action.’ -- Martin McKee, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, UK About the Author Franco Sassi, Senior Health Economist, Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Paris, France
