Reviews
Both these publications are addressed to men. Ryback's Look Ten Years Younger is aimed at a mature reader concerned with the issues of living a healthier, longer life. A consulting psychologist who is associate editor of the Journal of Humanistic Psychology, Ryback offers advice on mental health, physical well-being, the male midlife crisis, sexuality in later years, diet and nutrition, exercise, and strategies for male networking. In this same popular vein but addressed primarily to a younger age group, Total Health for Men arranges a multitude of male health issues in an A-to-Z format, from alcohol abuse to prostate cancer. The publication of these two books and the popularity of Rodale's Men's Health magazine attest to an increased awareness of male health issues and a growing demand for information on nutrition, fitness, general lifestyle enhancements, and a variety of other medical topics. Both titles are recommended for popular medical collections.
