Slim by design : mindless eating solutions for everyday life / Brian Wansink, PhD. - 312 pages : illustrations (colour), map (colour) ; 23 cm
Originally published: New York: William Morrow, 2014.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
In this paradigm-shattering book, leading behavioural economist and food psychologist Brian Wansink - dubbed the 'Sherlock Holmes of food' and the 'wizard of why' - offers a radical new philosophy for weight loss. The answer isn't to tell people what to do: it's to set up their living environments so that they will naturally lose weight. Using research from his acclaimed Food and Brand Lab at Cornell University, Wansink reveals how innovative and inexpensive design changes - from home kitchens to restaurants, from grocery stores to schools and workplaces - can make it mindlessly easy for people to eat healthier and make it more profitable for the companies who sell the food. In 'Slim by Design', Wansink argues that the easiest, quickest and most natural way to reverse weight gain is to work with human nature, not against it.
