Negative Positive
Title: Important message, badly executed
Review: I wanted to love this book. I'm exploring gastric bypass surgery and this is one of the few books I could find. Dr. Martin, as an MD who has gone through the procedure, has a unique opportunity to give detailed advice from the inside. Unfortunately the advice is not nearly as detailed as I need and the book reads like it was transcribed from an audiotaped lecture by someone with a limited vocabulary. Typos, sentence fragments, paragraphs out of context, mistakes like "undue lading" for "undulating" and "peculiar ready" for "peculiarity," a length of 93 pages in a large double-spaced font ... this book is not nearly ready for prime time. Dr. Martin, write a much longer expanded edition and get a proofreader and editor! I'd especially like to hear more about what to expect post surgery.
