Hufeland's Art Of Prolonging Life (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781163238103)

Hufeland's Art of Prolonging Life is a book written by Christoph W. Hufeland, a German physician and philosopher, in the late 18th century. The book is a comprehensive guide to healthy living and longevity, offering practical advice on diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management. Hufeland believed that a long and healthy life was not only possible, but also desirable, and he advocated for a holistic approach to health that emphasized both physical and mental well-being. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the benefits of vegetarianism, the dangers of smoking and drinking, the importance of fresh air and sunlight, and the role of positive thinking in promoting longevity. Hufeland also explores the science of aging, discussing the causes of disease and the ways in which the body deteriorates over time. The book is a fascinating glimpse into the history of medicine and a valuable resource for anyone interested in living a healthy and fulfilling life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
