A new history of modern diets in America that goes beyond the familiar narrative of the nation’s collective failure to lose weight. Weisse argues that millions sought “fad” diets—such as the Atkins program which ushered in the low-carbohydrate craze—to wrest control of their health from pessimistic doctors and lifelong pharmaceutical regimens.
