Lifestyle Medicine: Environment & Preventative Medicine In Health & Disease is the 2017, fully-illustrated paperback that students, clinicians, and wellness-minded adults keep searching for on Amazon, eBay, and AbeBooks. Written by the globally respected quartet of Michael Sagner, Stephan Rossner, Andrew Binns, and Garry Egger, this 456-page textbook from Academy Press distills the latest evidence on how daily habits—sleep, nutrition, movement, stress, and our environment—prevent and even reverse chronic illness. Unlike quick-fix health books, it is grounded in peer-reviewed science yet presented in clear, reader-friendly language that works for undergraduates, medical residents, and motivated lay-readers alike.
What makes this copy especially collectible is its condition: a crisp, unmarked, very-good paperback from a smoke-free home—no ex-library stamps, no inscriptions, no underlining. The full-color charts, graphs, and clinical photos remain bright and flat, so you get all the visual learning aids that instructors assign and practitioners refer to in session. With the 2017 first edition now out of print in paperback, demand is rising among health-coach certification programs, naturopathic colleges, and proactive readers who want a single authoritative volume on preventative medicine.
Inside, you’ll find actionable protocols on everything from blue-light exposure and gut microbiome diversity to urban design and workplace wellness. The authors integrate environmental medicine, epigenetics, and behavior-change psychology into practical algorithms you can apply immediately in clinical practice or personal life. Whether you need a core text for a lifestyle-medicine syllabus, a evidence-rich reference for patient education, or a gift for a professional transitioning into integrative care, this clean, illustrated copy delivers the definitive framework for using lifestyle as front-line therapy.
