Bloomsbury presents Magic Pill written and read by Johann Hari.

'I learned so much' DAVINA McCALL
'Will help you think more clearly about eating, dieting, health and mental health' JONATHAN HAIDT

Over the last decade, an extraordinary scientific breakthrough has taken place. A new kind of drug has arrived on the market, working in an unprecedented way to revolutionise weight loss and dieting.

In 2023, Johann Hari began injecting himself with one of the weight loss drugs transforming how we look, feel and live.

What began as a personal journey soon took him on an international investigation, tackling some of the most world-changing issues as he asked: Who should be taking these medications? How are they set to change not only the way we think about weight loss, but our economies? What are the benefits – and what are the risks?

This is the book to read on the weight loss drugs taking over the world.

Recensies van critici

A brilliant synthesis of so much important information. Really important, and very necessary (Stephen Fry)
A brilliant book by a master story-teller. It’s compassionate, wise, and mind-expanding. Whether you are excited about these drugs or sceptical of them, you will learn so much in Magic Pill – it is a must-read (Philippa Perry)
I read this book in four days, and the whole time I have been quoting chunks of it to anyone that will listen. It is a game changer – for all of us. It is balanced and shocking, vitally important and crucially non-judgemental (Davina McCall)
In Magic Pill, Johann Hari gives us a crash course on the new weight-loss drugs that will soon be transforming bodies, minds and societies on a massive scale. I had no idea of the power of these drugs, or of the complex web of risks and benefits, until Hari laid it all out with his wonderful technique of saying, “Come on a journey with me as I take these drugs myself while talking with scientists and colourful characters all over the world!” Magic Pill will help you think more clearly about eating, dieting, health and mental health, even if you never touch Ozempic (Jonathan Haidt, author of THE ANXIOUS GENERATION)
In Magic Pill, Johann Hari marshals his trademark talents at meticulous research, incisive prose, telling anecdote and keen insight to dissect yet another of our dysfunctional culture’s troubling features: the obesity epidemic of the past few decades and its treatments. Entertaining without trivializing and deeply informative without being prescriptive, this book leaves us with much to ponder, both on the individual and social levels (Gabor Maté)
Magic Pill is a fascinating exploration of weight-loss pharmaceuticals that will redefine our approach to obesity . . . This book is not just a personal story, but an examination of how these drugs interact with social norms and personal health, promising liberation – and new psychological dilemmas. As we stand on the brink of a medical revolution, Magic Pill is a vital guide through the complex scientific, emotional, and cultural landscape of this new frontier (Charles Duhigg, bestselling author of THE POWER OF HABIT)
Compelling, thoughtful and fascinating, a revealing and inspiring meditation on weight loss, addiction, and the new drugs that may change the way we think about and treat obesity (Maia Szalavitz)
With the intense interest in the new miracle weight-loss drugs, we need a balanced look at their promise and peril. Entertaining and highly-readable, Johann Hari’s Magic Pill delivers the information people need to help make a medical decision that might change their future (Arthur C. Brookes, bestselling author of FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH)

Unerwarteter Weise ist es eins der besten Bücher, die ich seit langem gelesen habe. Es war in vielerlei Hinsicht ein Augenöffner nicht nur bezüglich der abnehmen Pille, sondern auch bezüglich Lebensmittelindustrie und gleichzeitig unglaublich leicht zu lesen. Der Auto hat gut recherchiert und macht das Buch so unglaublich greifbar mit seinem Storytelling sehr empfehlenswert.

Informativ und leicht zu lesen gleichzeitig

i originally wanted to hear this book because I was considering wether I should suggest GLP-1 drugs to a severely overweight friend. However I was pleasently surprised to see the various different topics covered by this book, starting with the root causes of our debilitating health and increasing waistlines accross almost all industrialized countries, the dangers and risks associated with ozempic and what it means for our societies, our bodies, our children, etc. the objective of this book seems to be to lay the problems and benefits all out without actually giving an answer as too what must be done. In this, the author was extremely successful and I will probably also check out other books he has published. very informative and entertaining. would recommend 👌

best book to read/hear if you are struggling with weight and dont know why
