Perhaps this has been posted here before, but this has really excited my thinking so I want to share it.

This lecture is just over an hour, so save it until you have time, but I found it fascinating. I haven't read the book yet, but clearly I'm going to have to.
It seems to me that he is in the interesting position of both introducing a whole new paradigm about the thermodynamics of obesity and also just re-acquainting us with information that has been known for decades.
In any case, it has certainly changed the way I think about human fat accumulation.
