Review :
"While the book is mainly for surgeons, other practitioners who treat these patients, as well as students and residents, also will benefit. ... This is a needed and well‐produced update to the first edition. The knowledge of obesity continues to change rapidly, and this book is the definitive resource for those who treat these patients."
