"[These] findings from the most comprehensive large study ever undertaken of the relationship between diet and the risk of developing disease are challenging much of American dietary dogma." - The New York Times. "This is one of the most important books about nutrition ever written - reading it may save your life." - Dean Ornish, M.D. "The Revised and Expanded Edition of the Bestseller that Changed Millions of Lives. The science is clear. The results are unmistakable. You can dramatically reduce your risk of cancer, heart disease, and diabetes just by changing your diet. More than 30 years ago, nutrition researcher T. Colin Campbell and his team at Cornell, in partnership with teams in China and England, embarked upon the China Study, one of the most comprehensive studies of health and nutrition ever conducted. What they found, combined with findings in Colin's laboratory, opened their eyes to the dangers of a diet high in animal protein and to the unparalleled health benefits of a whole foods, plant-based diet. In 2005, Colin and his son Tom, now a physician, shared those findings with the world in The China Study, hailed as one of the most important books about diet and health ever written. Featuring brand new content, this expanded edition of Colin and Tom's groundbreaking book includes the latest undeniable evidence of the power of a plant-based diet, plus updated information about the changing medical system and the recent surging interest in plant-based nutrition. The China Study: Revised and Expanded Edition presents a clear and concise message of hope as it dispels a multitude of health myths and misinformation. The key to a long, healthy life lies in three things: breakfast, lunch, and dinner." - from the rear outer cover.
