THE GOLD STANDARD DIET: HOW TO LIVE TO BE 100

I nominate Charles Atwood for the Nobel Prize in pediatrics. In this thoughtful presentation, the genial doctor reviews the scientific evidence in support of a low-fat diet for children. In so doing, he gives children hope for a future without the threat of early death from heart disease or cancer. The presentation is structured as an interview by women who echo the concerns of loving mothers everywhere. Will my child get enough protein and calories? These and other questions are answered with gentle humor and common sense, and delivered with a delightful lilt of a Southern drawl. The doctor's reassuring voice could open a few hearts and unclog a few arteries by itself. Three cheers for the good doctor! J.W.
