Default Re: DANDR 1992 Question

Another big difference between the older books and the last book is the tone. Dr. A was much more in-your-face confrontational in the older books. He had mellowed some by the 2002 edition.

A good example is the chapter on exercise:

1992 Title: Exercise--A Pleasant Path to Slimness
First Sentence: Since I thrive on controversy, I haven't mentioned exercise.

2002 Title: Exercise: It's Non-Negotiable
First sentence: Calling all couch potatoes: If you're not getting regular exercise, you aren't following the Atkins Nutritional Approach.
