The Engine 2 Diet, by Rip Esselstyn

I came across this book circuitously: I was watching a set of videos from a health conference sponsored by Dr. John McDougall. One of the speakers was Jeff Novick, who was the source of Esselstyn's chapter 3 material on reading packaged food labels. Another speaker was John Mackey, the CEO of Whole Foods, who described an ambitious and impressive program for the firm's employees, and mentioned partnering with Esselstyn for a line of foods. So... I figured I'd might as well see what this guy is about for myself.

Bottom line: amused that he uses the phrase "plant strong" to avoid the (presumably more frightening) term "vegan." But a great book, based on great science.

Oh, and a chapter on exercises, and a number of (what seem to be great; eager to try some) recipes.
