Yeah. The presentation of health issues in the media suffers greatly from dumbing down and miscommunication, among other things. I looked at that Salon article and there are points that I don't believe an evolutionary biologist would have made in such an unqualified way, which suggests to me that the reviewer has misunderstood the science in the book... but you never know.
I don't even really know what the paleo diet is (I can guess), I haven't read the Zuk book or any books on the topic, but I would humbly say that it's a good thing to be able to read about the conflicting points of view. Anyone with an interest would be better off reading the book and making up their own mind rather than worrying about the media's presentation of it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
