[Perspectives] Fat and heart disease: challenging the dogma

Many readers will be incensed by this book. If you think saturated fats and cholesterol are bad for you, you'll be incensed. If you think the fat story is exaggerated, you'll be incensed. If you trust in the objectivity of science to inform health policy, you'll be incensed. Stories of shocking scientific corruption and culpability by government agencies are all to be found in Nina Teicholz's bestseller The Big Fat Surprise. This is a disquieting book about scientific incompetence, evangelical ambition, and ruthless silencing of dissent that has shaped our lives for decades.
