具体描述
From the best-selling author of Why We Get Fat, a groundbreaking, eye-opening exposé that makes the convincing case that sugar is the tobacco of the new millennium: backed by powerful lobbies, entrenched in our lives, and making us very sick.
Among Americans, diabetes is more prevalent today than ever; obesity is at epidemic proportions; nearly 10% of children are thought to have nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. And sugar is at the root of these, and other, critical society-wide, health-related problems. With his signature command of both science and straight talk, Gary Taubes delves into Americans' history with sugar: its uses as a preservative, as an additive in cigarettes, the contemporary overuse of high-fructose corn syrup. He explains what research has shown about our addiction to sweets. He clarifies the arguments against sugar, corrects misconceptions about the relationship between sugar and weight loss; and provides the perspective necessary to make informed decisions about sugar as individuals and as a society.

平装版的封面明明那么好看！
评分一本糖的进化史。理论背景很丰富，写得却像是一本小说。如果你还不知道糖的危害，值得一读。如果你有相关的研究，那就随便读读吧。Sweeping theories, but only partially credible.
评分一部糖的历史，并不给出结论，因为结论在每个人的手中。少吃，吃植物，少糖。
评分不是很吸引人
