This book spent as much time if not more time talking about the negatives of meat production. It was much less about farming and more trying to convince the listener become a vegan. Vegans will love this and do a lot of head nodding. Those who eat meat will consider turning it off and returning.

Well written. Good info on the three lead characters. Builds tension even though I knew who was going to win! Narrator mispronounced a word or two like hosel and Doral but then again, English is super tough. (I am not being sarcastic. It is tough.)

Great book! I grew up a golfer and got into golf right after this Masters so I didn’t watch it live. It was always the Masters that had legendary status. Great to have the backstory and know of all the other big things that happened during the 1975 tournament.

Very thoroughly covered diabetes, from early treatments/ perceptions to modern day. No one researches a topic to greater depths. Some of his previous work is covered again here, but relayed in a different way. Just guessing, but done so to address critics of his other books. Whether you are new to Mr. Taubes work or have read all of it, this is most definitely worth your time.

Excellent book. Great way of looking at science. My only issue was its length. I felt as if the author kept repeating themselves. This would probably be a better book in the abridged version. If that doesn’t exist, however, it is still well worth the listen.

He took on the subject of diet to chase down the science. He was not in it to sell a diet. That’s why this is so believable. It totally changed my thoughts of food. I’ve always struggled with weight. Now it’s effortless.

I cannot recommend this book enough.

Superb book! Great job of saying why some things were invented but how they went wrong. Then precautionary tales of not jumping to conclusions without evidence. Great read for anyone interested in science or history.

He got into nutrition without an agenda unlike so many of the others whose career would crumble if their ideas were to be proven false. If you have read his work before, you’ll love it. If he is new to you, be prepared to be taken down a path that may lead you to question all you know about nutrition. Great read.

If you’ve read all the Gary Taubes stuff, it’s hard to imagine he did not cover this material. Super informative. If you like science and science that makes sense, this is an awesome book!

If this book doesn’t get you inspired nothing will. It is written with a deep knowledge of what it’s like to be a runner. A fictional story that rings with truth. Bravo!

This book has the power to change your life after you read it. In these strange times, the book will help put your mind in a good place. It will help give you the power to deal with those things in which you have control and focus on what is truly important to you. It is the only book that I immediately started over again after finishing.

I saw several bad comments about narration. This is not a novel that needs different voices or emotions implied through tone. I would never have thought to point that out. There is nothing to keep you from listening to this book and hopefully, change your life, if only for a short time.
