Why Calories Count

Marion Nestle has a new book out, Why Calories Count. I've read a couple of her previous works and found them very informative. I'm about halfway through the new book and am already learning so much. What I most appreciate is her scientic (but not overly technical) approach to providing factual information about calories and how our bodies use them. This is not a diet book, but rather basic information on how calories are used and expended by our bodies.
Here is the link to the book on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Why-Calories-Count-Politics-California/dp/0520262883/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338332636&sr=8-1
