The Philosophy of Dieting
Hidden in works of philosophy are a several original, counterintuitive, and astonishingly effective pieces of dieting advice. There is Bergson and his laughter diet; Plato, who blamed being overweight on democracy; Hobbes and his diet contract; and Locke, whose diet allows you to eat as much as you like and still lose weight. If none of these diets suit you there are the Four Germans, including Marx and his revolutionary diet, Hegel's dieting dialectic, Schopenhauer's women's diet, and Nietzsche's überdiet. Then--via Kafka and Camus--it is back to Plato and his erotically charged love diet.
