Rezensionen

"There is no other book on pediatric obesity on the market that compares to this one. It covers all the basic sciences, social sciences, and clinical sciences that play a role in pediatric obesity. The most unique feature of this book is that at the end of each chapter, the author submits questions to the chapter authors. ... They give the book a great human touch." (Dyan Hes, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2018)
"This is an analysis of the obesity epidemic in its social, cultural, economic, and political contexts. It highlights challenges and opportunities for pediatric obesity prevention and community action. ... reviews of behavioural counselling, pharmacotherapy, and bariatric surgery provide practical guidance for the management of overweight children." (Journal of Consumer Policy, Vol. 42 (1), 2019)
