Davis - Proteinaholic

T his book has been an absolute labor of love, not just for me, but also for my family. After long workweeks, I spent many long weekends in the library studying all this research, and that has taken me away from that which is so special to me. The other day my six-year-old daughter asked me when I would be done with the book so we could play together and talk together and be together. To my daughters, Avery and Dylan, I am done, and I love you for all the times I made you turn off the TV, and all the times I couldnt go roller-skating. I promise I will make it up to you.

To my beautiful wife, thank you so much for your patience. Thanks for being my sounding board, my psychiatrist, and my rock. Most of all, thank you for taking this journey with me.

I would also like to thank my father who has evolved from a parent to a teacher, to a partner, and to a friend. Thanks for always caring so much. I so appreciate you reviewing this book, and your simple words, This book must be published, meant so much to me.

I cannot give enough thanks to Gideon Weil, my editor. This book could never have been published by anybody else. When I brought the idea for the book to Gideon, it was simply a vague notion. Gideon was the one who asked me what I thought was the foremost problem in this country when it comes to nutrition. My answer was, of course, the fact that we are a country of proteinaholics, but it took his keen sense to make me realize it. I am not sure if Gideon has worked with a surgeon before, and I doubt he will again. Thank you so much for allowing me to miss so many deadlines and sticking with me for years before I could deliver to you exactly what I wanted to say.

Finally, I would like to thank my friend Howard Jacobson for helping me tie my thoughts together. If it were not for Howard, this book would never have been finished. Howard became my compass. He took what I had written and made it readable and logical. I cannot thank you enough.
