References

Listed by chapter, here are the references made in The Obesity Epidemic. The URL references were correct at the time the book went to print (July 2010). Where the reference is a journal, I have tried to find a web link for your convenience, but most of these I have in document form so this has not always been possible. (Some links do lead to a pay-to-view article – not all are freely available). Where the reference is a book, I have put a link across to the Amazon page for your convenience. I hope that this helps with your own research.
