Here for your delectation is theSPECTACULAR & RARE--------------------THE TRUTH ABOUT WEIGHT CONTROL: HOW TO LOSE EXCESS POUNDS PERMANENTLYby Neil Solomon, M.D., with Sally Sheppard.Neil Solomon began college at 16 and graduated in 1954. During the next decade, he earned an M.D., a masters degree and a doctorate. By 1967, his University of Maryland studies of obese patients were drawing notice.The next year, then-Gov. Spiro Agnew named him head of a 74-member health planning council.When Marvin Mandel became governor, Dr. Solomon stayed on as an adviser. In April 1969, Mr. Mandel created the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene and named Dr. Solomon its first secretary.Dr. Solomon's notices were good in 1972, with the publication of his first diet book, written with Sally Sheppard, "The Truth About Weight Control: How to Lose Excess Pounds Permanently."Suddenly, Dr. Solomon was more than a visible cabinet member. Now he was a national diet expert. The Book-of-the-Month Club offered his book. National magazines featured his articles on weight loss.Unlikely as it might have seemed, Maryland's health secretary became a pop figure of sorts, making the rounds of television shows to discuss dieting.He sat next to Johnny Carson on "The Tonight Show." He appeared on "Today." He chatted with Mike Douglas and Dick Cavett and David Susskind. He and Burt Reynolds shared the spotlight on one of Dinah Shore's shows.All this he could do while running his private practice, serving on medical school faculties, airing weekly television and radio programs, and managing the 15,000 employees of the state health department.This is the softcoverstatedDell First Edition from April 1973.
