Taking a comparative approach, this book investigates the ways in which obesity and its susceptibilities are framed in science and policy and how they might work better. Providing a clear, authoritative voice on the debate, the author builds on early work to engage further in ecological and complexity thinking in obesity. Many of the models that have emerged since obesity became a population-level issue are examined, including the energy balance model, and models used to examine human body fatness from a range of perspectives including evolutionary, anthropological, environmental, and political viewpoints. The book is ideal for those working on, or interested in, obesity science, health policy, health economics, evolutionary medicine, medical sociology, nutrition and public health who want to understand the shifts that have taken place in obesity science, policy, and intervention in the past forty years.

Art Models 10 Companion Disk is a photographic figure drawing reference on a PC and Mac compatible DVD data disk. With 100 poses and 40 models, it presents over 2,800 photos of nude art models?both female and male?in Art Models'' signature in-the-round photography, complete with alternate views and in high resolution. All for less than the cost of hiring one model for one session. People who draw or paint can choose the best angle for their project. People who do 3D work, like sculpture, get all the required views around the figure. Great for professional artists creating finished works of art and a vast source of study material for students. Scale, rotate, flip, enlarge, brighten, darken and even combine images using standard photo editing software like Photoshop or GIMP for endless variety. Because the photos are presented in JPEG format, they can be sent to any device or printer.
