referring to beverages the introduction to the US of liposuction. What she fails to mention is the context - how many procedures were beverages performed in this period? Is that 20 deaths out of 200 procedures? 2400? 24000? It's inconsistencies such as these beverages which demean the author's credibility somewhat.Having said that, the book does highlight the very unhealthy obsession with weight-loss that is now pandemic. Interestingly (to me at least), the book was written only a year before the diet drugs Redux and Pondimin were taken off the market, after being found to cause significant heart valve damage (along with PPH) - I would be very interested to see an updated issue of the book, if only to see if this is addressed adequately.Do try to obtain a copy though - it's informative for the most, and it's an important book. Was this review helpful to you?
