What an eye opener!

This book was the assigned reading for my Health and Fitness class. I've read nearly the whole book and was blown away with the wealth of great information it contains. It lays everything out in a way that's very easy to understand and follow. It covers everything from how to really eat to how to exercise in ways that will increase your lifespan and make it enjoyable. One of the greatest accomplishments of this book is making you grateful you read it, and excited to adopt lifetime health and fitness improvements. One thing I should mention about this book: This is considered a school textbook, which is why it is so expensive (boo for price gouging). It is a fantastic book that everyone should read though, in my opinion. This is the 9th edition of the book, published in 2006. There is a 10th edition that came out in 2008, and an 11th edition coming out in January, 2010. My assumption is that the differences are minor, since the lessons the book covers are basic essentials to health and fitness, and I doubt they change every two years like the fad diets do. It seems more likely that the book is simply updated to reflect more current events as it shares examples from the media and current events (and probably to make more money for the author). Personally, I picked up this book for ten bucks used on e bay. It may be worth it to you to search around a bit before buying this at full price. Also, this book comes with a CD and nutrition/fitness log pages, plus every page in the book is perforated so they can be easily removed. If you're considering finding this used, make sure to pay attention to these specifics. I haven't used the CD, so I really can't comment on it either way. Again, this is not a suggestion for a fad diet or workout. This book helps give you the tools to adopt a nutrition and fitness plan that is lifelong. I only wish I could have read this book when I was a teen; I'd be much healthier than I am today. Regardless, I will be much healthier from now on.

Very good textbook

My son used this book for a summer class and I was impressed by the content of it and how much the prof taught directly from the book. Very good
