New York Times best-selling creator and ruler of "immersion journalism" A.J. Jacobs tackles his most challenging experiment yet: a yearlong quest to radically improve every aspect of his body and mind - from his brain to his fingertips to his stomach muscles. Having raised his soul in The Year of Living Biblically and sharpened his head in The Know-It-All, A. J. Jacobs experienced one feat remaining in the self-improvement trinity: to be the healthiest man on the globe. He doesn't just want to lose a couple of pounds, or surface finish a triathlon, or lower his cholesterol. First, he previously to tackle an elaborate web of diet and exercise advice, most which is nonsensical, unproven, and contradictory. Second, he previously to talk to a team of medical advisers. And finally, he previously to subject matter himself, during the period of two years, to a grueling program of exercises, a range of diets and healthy plans, and a brutal array of techniques and routines to improve from his ability to hear to his sleeping - all the while testing the perseverance of his partner. This latest work bursts with hilarity and comfort, all the while testing our culture's assumptions and obsessions using what makes good health and allowing the listener to reflect on his or her own health, body, and eventual mortality.
