Critser's sharp-eyed reportage and sharp-tongued analysis make for a disarmingly funny and truly alarming book. Critser investigates the many factors of American life -- from supersize to Super Mario, from high-fructose corn syrup to the high cost of physical education in schools -- that have converged and conspired to make us some of the fattest people on the planet. He also explains why pediatricians are treating conditions rarely before noticed in children, why Type 2 diabetes is on the rise, and how agribusiness has unwittingly altered the American diet. 1023108 2003 Fat Land total:388|5:56|4:148|3:146|2:31|1:7| 388 1379 632 74 5 2 false false Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Sat Jun 23 09:20:55 -0700 2007 Sat Jul 07 09:18:00 -0700 2007 more...]]> 5 2 false false Sat Sep 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Wed Aug 29 05:03:41 -0700 2007 Mon Sep 03 16:42:01 -0700 2007 more...]]> 4 1 false false Sat Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2005 Tue Jul 03 00:53:45 -0700 2007 Sat Jul 14 21:29:39 -0700 2007 more...]]> 4 1 false false Sun Mar 16 10:21:43 -0700 2008 Mon Jun 11 18:39:54 -0700 2007 Sun Mar 16 10:21:24 -0700 2008 more...]]> 3 0 false false Fri Jan 02 13:28:56 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 02 13:30:13 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Tue Aug 04 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 27 17:36:31 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 04 14:20:55 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Feb 02 20:56:48 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 02 21:03:10 -0800 2009 more...]]> 1 0 false false Wed Mar 18 18:05:23 -0700 2009 Wed Mar 18 18:05:31 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Mon Jan 05 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 22 09:35:32 -0800 2009 Sun Apr 05 10:50:53 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Mon Jan 19 16:16:57 -0800 2009 Sat Nov 29 11:51:46 -0800 2008 Mon Jan 19 16:16:57 -0800 2009 more...]]> 2 0 false false Sat Jan 17 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Aug 14 07:02:10 -0700 2008 Sat Jan 17 21:07:08 -0800 2009
