What’s healthier? The olive oil-rich Mediterranean Diet or the low-fat, plant-based diet followed by former president and heart patient Bill Clinton? Does the Paleo diet help answer the question of good fat versus low fat? Is high saturated fat coconut oil really healthful?

Good Fat or Low Fat provides an easy-to-understand, science-based assessment of these and other important topics in healthful eating and weight management.

“Healthful” is explored in terms of multiple factors, including weight, inflammation and oxidation, cholesterol and blood pressure, blood sugars and cognitive brain function.

Epigenetics, which attempts to explain how our genes respond to our environment, is the latest twist on the historic nature vs. nurture debate. In addressing this and other controversies in contemporary science in Epigenetics in the Age of Twitter, Gerald Weissmann taps what he calls “the social network of Western Civilization,” including the many neglected women of science: from the martyred Hypatia of Alexandria, the first woman scientist, to the Nobel laureates Marie Curie, Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard, and Elizabeth Blackburn, among other luminaries in the field. Always instructive and often hilarious, this is a one-volume introduction to modern biology, viewed through the lens of contemporary mass media and the longer historical tradition of the Scientific Revolution. Whether engaging in the healthcare debate or imagining the future prose styling of the scientific research paper in the age of Twitter, Weissmann proves himself as an incisive cultural critic and satirist.

April Michelle Davis proofread this manuscript in the weeks before it was sent to the printer. Proofreading is usually performed on a manuscript that has already been through developmental or copyediting and has already been laid out by a designer into page proofs. It provides a last review of egregious errors, such as basic grammar, punctuation, spelling, and inconsistencies, and any other errors that were inserted during the design process. April Michelle’s experienced eye for errors and her knowledge of grammar rules lend to the success of her clients’ books, and she delights in helping to make the authors shine!
