| Abstract: | This problem stares us in the face. Figures and statistics are quite unnecessary and I make no apology for not including them in this paper: every doctor in practice knows that the chances are that his next patient will be overweight to some extent. I propose to deal with the subject under three headings: (1) why are there so many fat people around? (2) How does obesity complicate life? and (3) What can the medical profession do to help solve this problem? |
