Raves and Reviews
"Entertaining and fact-filled."
– Booklist
"Perhaps most importantly, Yeo tells readers to view food as something to work with, not to fear. His well-informed survey will leave health-conscious readers both entertained and with plenty of food for thought."
– Publishers Weekly (starred)
"Gene Eating, by Dr. Giles Yeo, is a very enjoyable read by someone who knows what they are writing about. It is rare to find a book, written by a world class scientist, that is both informative and entertaining. Giles not only delves into the science of obesity but, with honesty and great precision, skewers many of the more foolish fad diets out there."
– Michael Mosley, #1 New York Times bestselling author of 'The Fast Diet'
"Giles Yeo makes so much sense, and cuts through the confusion about diet and health with refreshing directness. His excellent book Gene Eating busts myths and homes in on what you really need to know. It’s been a genuine help to me and I’m sure it will be to everyone who reads it."
– Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall
"Dr. Yeo is a leading scientist in the field of obesity and one of our best science communicators. Everyone worried about their weight ought to read this book to digest its message about the importance of genetics."
– Robert Plomin, author of Blueprint: How DNA Makes Us Who We Are
