I'm a fan of A.J. Jacobs and have read two of his other books. This one is along the same lines...research a topic and then try to implement what you find. This time his focus is health. Although the subtitle talks about bodily perfection, it isn't really the goal...just being more healthy and living a better life in terms of extending life by taking care of yourself. Each month for two years A. J. focuses on one aspect of health. Some of the months are better than others. Along the way you get his commentary and notes on his life and family. His wife Julie is certainly a gem and his 3 kids are in the adorable stage...I wonder how his writing will change when those kids become troublesome teens. I am interested in some of the areas of focus in this book...living a quiet life (avoiding noise pollution), the treadmill desk and taking particular care of your hands are all interesting chapters that I did not expect. Looking forward to the next topic of A.J.'s focus.
