Physiology of Exercise and Healthy Aging First Edition

As an aging physician, I was looking for scientific information about the aging process and how to address it. This book is based upon science and is well referenced if you want to search further. It is well written, concise and readable for the non-scientist. While not specific on excercise programs, it directs you to where you can get more information. This is an excellent place to start if you want to learn about the biology of aging an what to do to face it successfully.

Succinct and comprehensive review of subject.; Fulfills a need.

The book was completely highlighted and underlined but was sold under good condition. I can't resell it because of this, but it got the job done

Well written

This book teaches difficult concepts in a way that is understandable and not intimidating. Is an excellent review book for Kinesiology majors as well as for non Kinesiology majors to understanding difficult concepts.

Good book, interesting perspectives.

Not up to date in relation to interaction between body and mind, in paricular in how exercise modifies the brain regarding new neurons, memory and executive function.

Excellent!
