Kessler, the dynamic and controversial former FDA commissioner known for his crusade against the tobacco industry, is taking on another business that's making America sick: the food industry.

Food manufacturers create products by manipulating these ingredients to stimulate our appetites, setting in motion a cycle of desire and consumption that ends with a nation of overeaters. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDrawing from the latest brain science as well as interviews with top physicians and food industry insiders, \u003ci\u003eThe End of Overeating\u003c\/i\u003e exposes the food industry's aggressive marketing tactics and reveals shocking facts about how we lost control over food--and what we can do to get it back.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDAVID A.
