"The Economists' Diet: The Surprising Formula for Losing Weight and Keeping It Off"

https://www.amazon.com/Economists-Diet-Surprising-Formula-Ke...

The subtitle is a lie. There's nothing "surprising" here at all. It's complete common sense.

Also:

"Fitness Confidential: Adventures in the Weight-Loss Game"

https://www.amazon.com/FITNESS-CONFIDENTIAL-Adventures-Weigh...

Taubes is good too:

"Why We Get Fat: And What to Do About It"

https://www.amazon.com/Why-We-Get-Fat-About/dp/0307474259/

Honorable mention: "The Hacker's diet (how to loose weight and hair through stress and poor nutrition" ( https://www.fourmilab.ch/hackdiet/ )

Written by one Autodesk cofounders. Good read, btw.
