About the author
RUSSELL FARRIS is a retired artificial-intelligence researcher who spent most of his career solving problems for the U.S. Navy. He is the author of The Potbelly Syndrome: How Common Germs Cause Obesity, Diabetes, and Heart Disease, co-written with Per Marin, M.D., Ph.D.
After suffering a heart attack in 1998, Farris began applying his problem-solving skills to the study of heart disease and related illnesses. The book argues that common germs drive obesity, diabetes, and heart disease through elevated cortisol levels.
