The Life Extension Institute wanted Americans to stop dying early, and this was its handbook. How to Live sets rules for healthful living based on modern science: air, food, poisons, activity, and hygiene in general, with a hygiene reference board of experts behind every rule. A phenomenon in its day, reprinted endlessly. Add years the evidence-loving way.
