Philosopher's Body 2

Articles on diet, exercise, posture, etc., from the 1930s through the 1950s. This volume includes several notes from Bernarr Macfadden, George Hackenschmidt, Genevieve Stebbins, Joseph A. Kennedy, Leonide Keating, Selvarajan Yesudian & Elisabeth Haich, and Stanley Lief. See Philosopher's Body 1.

The three Philosopher’s Body files could be more properly titled Philosophy of the Body. They consist mostly of excerpts on diet, yoga, hygiene, disease, healthy living, etc., ranging from very specific practical advice, to theoretical ideas about the nature of disease and old age. Many of the articles and arguments are products of their time, and some of the authors have pretty dubious credentials. As with all book notes, these were not necessarily PB's own beliefs, and should be taken with a grain of salt.
