A must read for parents, community leaders, and educational policy makers alike, author T. Alan Brenner not only defines the factors that have contributed to the creation, sustenance, and proliferation of the childhood obesity problem, but provides the reader with the realistic solutions society has failed to recognize and details the steps that anyone can take to reverse the childhood obesity trend.
