JUNSHI CHEN, MD, PHD, Senior Research Professor, Institute of Nutrition and Food Safety, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention

Dr. Campbells book The China Study is a moving and insightful history of the strugglestill ongoingto understand and explain the vital connection between our health and what we eat. Dr. Campbell knows this subject from the inside: he has pioneered the investigation of the diet-cancer link since the days of the seminal China Study, the NAS report, Diet, Nutrition and Cancer, and AICRs expert panel report, Food, Nutrition and the Prevention of Cancer: A Global Perspective. Consequently, he is able to illuminate every aspect of this question. Today, AICR advocates a predominantly plant-based diet for lower cancer risk because of the great work Dr. Campbell and just a few other visionaries began twenty-five years ago.

MARILYN GENTRY, President, American Institute for Cancer Research

The China Study is a well-documented analysis of the fallacies of the modern diet, lifestyle, and medicine and the quick fix approach that often fails. The lessons from China provide compelling rationale for a plant-based diet to promote health and reduce the risk of the diseases of affluence.

SUSHMA PALMER, PHD, Former Executive Director Food and Nutrition Board, U.S. National Academy of Sciences
