"My Other Body is one of only one of four books featured at this year’s
20th Annual Practical Approaches to the Treatment of Obesity. It went
through a rigorous selection process to get here.
The book is an autobiography that informs the mind and touches the
heart. It teaches the two essential clinical skills of empathy and
compassion, and is recommended reading for anyone involved in the
treatment of severely obese patients."
--Dr. George Blackburn, Associate Director of Nutrition
Division of Nutrition, Harvard Medical School

Harvard University Conference
Recommends My Other Body by Ann Pai
It's an incredible honor to have the book selected by the Harvard Medical
School's "Practical Approaches to the Treatment of Obesity" conference.
In his e-mail letting me know that My Other Body had been selected for
the conference, Dr. Blackburn said: "For all the reasons your many
reviewers state, let us hope we can progress to a kinder, gentle, and
knowledgeable community."
Harvard University
recommends just four
books this year to the
obesity conference -
and My Other Body is
one of those books.
