The Good Vices: From Beer to Sex, the Surprising… door Dr. Harry Ofgang
Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten.A simple, but thoughtful read. If you belive that most everything is good in moderation, you'll like this book. We receive so much messaging these days about diet, lifestyle and self care and this is a great way to parse it all out.
Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten.I received this book some time ago as a review copy and didn't finish it. I guess that's OK because it's the kind of book that can be read in separate chapters, depending on what subject you would like to explore. None of the subjects is covered in depth, but this is a good introduction to "what's actually good for you."
Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten.This book offers an interesting view on what society considers "right" and "wrong" and how it is ok to have things that are often promoted as being bad for you
Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten.With a light hand and quick wit, the authors take the reader through several of the traditional “vices” and illustrated why they might actually be good for you!
This was a fun and education read. Nothing ground-breaking, mind you, just light science combined with a few remarks on social and cultural traditions that could use a bit of revamping in our minds. Reading this confirmed what I knew – beer, sex, wine, chocolate, and sleeping in are all healthy (in moderation) for us as humans. The authors are quick to point out moderation as an important part of these ideas, but also point out that depravation of anything is not good for us.
The prose lacks the heavy technical jargon and would be easy to read for the general population, but it has enough science to satisfy any academic. Worth reading, for anyone 12+, and would be suitable as a non-fiction selection for a book club, particular one that serves wine and chocolate!
Note: I received this book free through LibraryThing's Early Review Program in exchange for my fair and honest opinion… (meer)
