Therapeutic options for treating obesity are limited in their effectiveness. Frustration with these methods often leads to the discontinuation of any therapy. Addressing these issues, An Atlas of Obesity and Weight Control contains nearly 150 clinical pictures of obesity and its related conditions, as well as many pertinent clinical guidelines and up-to-the-minute data on assessment and treatment. It provides a timely and much-needed overview of current knowledge and practice in the treatment of obesity. It is an essential reference for nutritionists, internists, dieticians, endocrinologists, and medical and academic professionals.
