Opplysninger | Opprinnelig utgitt i innbundet format i 2022. - Exercise is our modern obsession, and we have the fancy workout gear and fads to prove it. It was an ancient obsession too, but as a chapter in human history, it's been largely overlooked. In this ingenious and erudite history of exercise, Bill Hayes examines the origins of different forms of exercise, chronicling how they have evolved over time, and dissecting the dynamics of human movement. From Hippocrates and Plato to Jane Fonda and Girolamo Marcuriale, his cultural and scientific history never fails to inform, delight and provoke.
