I have no problem with quoting someone (the original text) and then citing the reference.
This is an entire chapter. It has pretty much been cut and pasted, words changed slightly, and then sold as an original product.

If this is the citation

(This chapter has been highly influenced by the work of Lyle McDonald and is essentially a very brief summary of his Fat Metabolism chapter in "The Ultimate Diet 2.0. I'd like to thank Lyle for his help both personally and professionally and his contributions to this field. I strongly urge you to check out Lyle's website – www.bodyrecomposition.net).

How is this "wrong" other than it being left off.
Now, one can believe or disbelieve whether it was "accidental" or not,
although logic would dictate that the easiest thing to do for complete ass-coverage is to include it, since enough people likely know both products well enough that SOMEONE would be bound to call you out on it.
But, your belief or disbelief of if it was accidently left off or intentional stealing is going to be largely based on your previous knowledge of these people and their situation, or your own bias for or against someone, perhaps because of the previous knowledge.
To anyone else, it'll look like a bunch of people all hatin on Alwyn because he's all successful and crap. Or whatever.
Proof of
intent to steal without proper citation? Show it. Prove it wasn't a mistake in the WSFL camp.
Or keep circle jerking the love/hate-fest. *shrug*
