Study Disputes Benefits of Affirmative Action
UCLA law professor Richard Sander talks about his new study on affirmative action in law schools. Sander says many African-American students at the nation's top law schools are struggling academically.  Many drop out, resulting in fewer minority lawyers, not more.  Harvard law professor David Wilkins disagrees. Sander and Wilkins talk with NPR's Renee Montagne.
In his new book <em>Fat Chance: Beating the Odds Against Sugar, Processed Food, Obesity, and Disease</em>, endocrinologist and obesity doc Robert Lustig deconstructs the mythology of fat. He says exercise, for all its benefits, won't help you shed pounds--and that fasting only worsens weight gain.
