Older version of Dr. Atkins' Book
 
I own a copy of the 1977, Dr. Atkins' Super Energy Diet and wondered if anyone else has had the privledge of reading this version?
At the time, he was being attacked by the first waves of the new studies that were turning Americans against fat. His book is loaded with awesome retorts to the media and FDA. Chapters you can't get in the newer ones, like...."In Defense of the Egg", "Special Advice about Children", and "We Must Discuss the Controversial Aspects."
Anyone else have it?

i got a copy of the 1972 version last month off of ebay- i considered the 'high energy' version and still might get it...

there are many differences in the versions- from 1972 up to current - i may end up with several versions so i can feel totally informed!! ;)

I'd like to get the 1972 as well. Its so neat to read and compare.
Also this one has comment cards to take out and fill in, and to send to Dr. Atkins for his surverys.
