Abstract
Donnelly discusses David Kessler's The End of Overeating: Taking Control of the Insatiable American Appetite, which is one of her collected diet books. She opines that The End of Overeating takes people on a dual journey, through the brain and its reward systems and through the food industry and its quest to design foods that become such powerful stimuli that the most disciplined has trouble resisting, even if people are not hungry. She argues that Kessler's message in The End of Overeating is that people are all subjected to powerful forces designed to make them eat but people can break the cycle of overeating.
