Thriving
Thriving: The Complete Mind /Body Guide For Optimal Health & Fitness for Men Dr. Robert Ivker and Edward Zorensky Hardcover 1997 Crown Publishers, Inc.

Until recently, medical professionals have perpetuated this way of thinking, directing their efforts toward the treatment, rather than the prevention, of disease. In Thriving, Dr. Robert Ivker and Edward Zorensky, Ph.D., offer a better way. Instead of taking health for granted, simply because we feel okay, they offer a proactive approach to health that goes beyond exercising and eating right to living with a new vitality.
