The book "Rethinking Thin" is a lively and liberating challenge to the conventional wisdom about diets and weight loss. Author and New York Times science writer Gina Kolata shows that our society's obsession with dieting and weight loss is less about keeping trim and staying healthy than about money, power, trends and impossible ideals. It is a story of the place of diets in American society and a provocative critique of the weight loss industry. Mike Murray is a clinical psychologist. This class for those over 50 meets Oct 7 - 28.
