Denise Minger has a nice little (that’s not true) summary (not true either) of Ancel Keys’ early work and some arguments that have been levied against him and it.
It’s long, but the take home message I’ll quote here:
Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t causation. Correlation isn’t a cucumber.
Have fun reading!
