Good Calories, Bad Calories (by Taubes) is none of those things. It is not a diet book, it is a book about diet. Any layman who picks it up to read it will almost immediately put it down due to the very dense text full of medical jargon. I thought it was a very thought provoking book. I really don't know how one is going to become insanely rich by pedaling a book like that.
