Seller's Description:
Fine in Near Fine jacket. Book Octavo, hardcover, fine in near fine glossy blue white and yellow dj. While our Neolithic ancestors rarely lived beyond age 30, people in today's relatively prosperous democracies can expect to live 75 to 79 years. Moore's sure-to-be controversial study of longevity frequently challenges conventional wisdom. Reviewing the latest studies, he finds that obesity, high blood pressure and cholesterol levels have much less impact on life expectancy than is commonly assumed, and that treatment for these risk factors does not appreciably enhance longevity. 318 pp.
