Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Listening to 'Overkill' was like having a trusted doctor pull me aside to whisper insider secrets. Tim H. Dixon's narration is clinical yet engaging, perfectly matching the book's tone. Offit's arguments are persuasive, yet he's careful to acknowledge complexities and uncertainties. I found myself squirming at the sheer number of common practices he debunks, from annual Pap smears to tonsillectomies. The pacing is brisk, keeping the listener on edge. However, some technical details can feel overwhelming, and I wish Offit had occasionally lightened the load with more anecdotes. Overall, 'Overkill' is a must-listen for anyone interested in health and wellness, eager to separate fact from fiction in the medical world.
