No, don't check out Atkins book, it's a piece of ****.
Get Protein Power by the Eades. It only has one or two errors in it.

Oh no, toss them both out and try the Cabbage Soup or was that
dingleberry torts? Save your money, add exercise and eat a balanced
diet less simple carbs.

well duh.... the whole debate is about what is a balanced diet.
according to the mainstream it is 60 plus percent carbs, according to
the low-carbers it is 40% or less. But I guess it doesn't matter as
long you deeply believe it is a truly balanced diet then the belief
will be enough to make you healthy and thin, eh?

And you say eat less simple carbs, eh? So complex carbs are acceptable
even if the GI-load or the calorie count is significantly higher than
some simple carbs?

On both recomendations, you've completely missed the mark.

He didn't make those recommendations.

Your argument is dishonest at best.

P.T. was right. The mainstream has been pushing the
low-fat/low-calorie idea for 100 years and we have never been fatter.

A lot of things have happened over the last 100 years. Most of those things
did not cause the current obesity epidemic.
