Über diesen Titel

Cambridge geneticist Dr Giles Yeo has dedicated over 20 years to studying how genes influence our eating habits. Instead of looking at how we have become obese, Gene Eating tackles the question of why some people eat more than others.

The UK has the biggest waistlines in Western Europe and an enormous problem of other diet-related illnesses. Our modern lifestyle, coupled with the food environment, has made weight loss the biggest public health quest of today; more of us than ever before are desperately bingeing on unreliable promises made online, on food labels or by the recent proliferation of food 'gurus' who are hungry for a slice of the multimillion-pound diet industry.

Written with his accessible, good-humoured style, Gene Eating unravels this hugely complex answer and argues that understanding our genes and the biology of our food intake is essential if we are to effectively tackle the obesity epidemic and improve our health. This pioneering book is a ray of light in our murky 'post-truth' climate - a celebration of evidence-based science that everyone can digest.

Kritikerstimmen

Gene Eating is one of the clearest attempts I have come across to explain complicated science. It is an entertaining read, full of lively anecdotes and self-deprecating humour... It is hard to imagine a more likeable guide than Yeo, or a more level-headed one. But if he sometimes makes us laugh in this wise, sensible book, his message is deadly serious. (Christina Patterson)

[An] engaging and accessible book. (Caroline Sanderson)
A hard-to-fault book written in a way that entertains as well as it informs... Yeo's study of human appetite is packed with insights and revelations, incorporating up-to-date scientific thinking... It's an anti-diet diet book you can trust. (Garry Bushell)

Very well written, funny and informative. Would recommend it to everyone. I especially liked the undogmatic and balanced view. Plus Giles is impressively good at narrating this book.

informative and fun

Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten. Bitte versuche es in ein paar Minuten noch einmal.
of all the Audiobooks I have heard, three were truly worth the time invested. Command & Control, E=mc^2 the history of an equation and thid is the third.

I love books that really contain profound knowledge and cut through the fog of semi-truths. As a German living in Germany, i had not heard of the author and speaker before.

this book is not heavy on genetics and could equally well have been titled. "Why many current Food Religions are nonsense and even dangerous". or "Diet Religions: fallacies and grains of truth" or "Diets: Personalise, Target and Fact-Check."

Thanks Dr. Yeo and team!
