Bill Bryson, bestselling author of The Body
«Myth-busting, illuminating, brilliant - Lieberman will completely change the way you think about your body»
Professor Alice Roberts, presenter of Our Incredible Human Journey
«Entertaining and informative... The book is full of helpful tips - you'll build muscle faster by extending muscles under load rather than contracting them; the kind of chair you sit on doesn't matter as long as you strengthen your back muscles and move regularly - conveyed in a humorous and sympathetic style»
