Lifestyle Medicine: Environment & Preventative Medicine In Health & Disease (2017, 456 pp., Academy Press) is the up-to-date, evidence-based textbook that health-conscious readers, students, and clinicians keep on the front shelf. Written by an international team—Michael Sagner, Stephan Rossner, Andrew Binns, and Garry Egger—the book bridges cutting-edge science with everyday action, showing how targeted changes in sleep, nutrition, movement, stress management, and environmental exposure can prevent or even reverse chronic illness. Richly illustrated charts, checklists, and infographics turn complex research into clear protocols you can apply immediately, whether you’re a young adult building lifelong habits or a practitioner designing patient plans.
Unlike quick-fix wellness manuals, this volume roots every recommendation in peer-reviewed data and real-world case studies. Separate chapters dissect the impact of urban design, air and water quality, workplace culture, and digital environments on metabolic, cardiovascular, and mental health, making it an indispensable reference for students of public health, nursing, nutrition, or sports science. The book’s comparative tables of risk factors, dose-response graphics, and summary “prescription” boxes let readers extract key take-aways for exams, client handouts, or personal goal-setting in minutes.
Collectors and professionals value this 2017 first-edition paperback for its holistic scope and future-focused bibliography—many of the 1,200+ citations were so new at publication that they still point to frontier research now entering mainstream guidelines. This copy is in very good condition from a smoke-free home: tight spine, clean pages, no ex-library markings, inscriptions, or highlighting, ensuring it remains a crisp desk reference or a thoughtful gift for anyone ready to swap reactive medicine for proactive, planet-friendly living.
