Good stuff. He's not the first to discuss net carbs, we've discussed the issue in depth here, before he even was aware of it

I'd like to get a copy of his book, but I'd like to buy it from a book store, like any other book, without the huge markup he demands on his site.

He's talking about Atkins scams. Dr. Atkins sells his book for $6, just like any other book. Dr. Ellis wants $40 soemthign, to find out about "secrets revealed".

Being able to browse a book in a bookstore to decide if it's worth buying, can resolve the problem. A 10 minute glance will tell you if there are any real "secrets". It's a good scam to sell books, and unfortunately, it works.

Wa'il
