The China Study: The Most Comprehensive Study of Nutrition Ever Conducted

T. Colin Campbell & Thomas M. Campbell II · 2004

1 person has this book on the record — 0 of 1 verdicts positive. The dissent stays on the page.

The bar next to each date shows how long ago it was said: 6d is days, 4yr is years.

Tim Spector mixed on it
He sold millions of copies of this book, and did a lot to jump-start the vegetarian movement in the US, where it had been very, very small, unlike in the UK. So it was very influential, although when I read and critiqued it, I felt a lot of the data didn't stand up.

That little bar

It says how long ago something was said, so you can tell last month from 2014 without doing the arithmetic. Full and green is recent; it drains and cools as the date gets older, and empties completely at about 6 years.

A striped bar means the date itself is an estimate — the source did not carry an exact one. An entry with no date at all gets no bar.
