Dr Stuart Farrimond - The Science of Living (New Hardback)
Synopsis
Full Title : The Science of sleep, work, diet, rest, love, exercise, living.
Subtitled : 219 Reasons To Rethink Your Daily Routine.
A Sunday Times Best Seller.
Explore the science behind your daily living habits and make your day healthier, happier, and more productive.
Many of the activities we take for granted are in fact contrary to a healthy lifestyle. In this ground-breaking book, long-held beliefs are exploded by new science: drinking eight glasses a day is too much; breakfast isn't the most important meal of the day; smartphones are not making us all depressed.
Bringing to bear the latest research in psychology, nutrition, biology, and physics, best-selling author Dr Stuart Farrimond unearths the facts behind the fads, and provides take-away advice on every area of our lives - and all delivered in Dr Stu's trademark style; approachable, authoritative, and above all, entertaining.
The Science of Living debunks pseudo-science and delivers only the facts. One day - one body - over 200 examples of science in action.

"What a bloody fascinating book this is! This is gold, pure gold. Accessible and informative facts offered up in a lovely, clean and bright presentation. Almost every single page has something worthwhile on it, and I lost count of the times my previously held beliefs were challenged and conquered."
"I cannot recommend this book highly enough, first class research, deep knowledge, its easy to read without dumbing down and its beautifully presented. Do yourself a favour and read it." - Goodreads Reviews.
"This fantastic book guides readers through all aspects of daily life, broken down into morning, afternoon, evening and night, to help all of us make positive choices to help our sleep, work, diet, rest, relationship and exercise patterns. Supported by colourful infographics, quotes and bitesize information throughout, it's a swift page-turner that also provides plenty of opportunities to delve much deeper." - Google Review.
