This book was very interesting, and definitely reminded me that I need to read more books about big adventures, as those chapters were by far my favourite part of the book.
Stroud's discussion of the evolutionary basis of our body's relationship with food and exercise was presented in a clear way that made it easy to follow his logic.
I'd be interested to look up some of his more recent work (should it exist!), as the copy of this book that I read is borrowed from my dad, and is now 23 years old, so I'm sure Stroud has been involved in many other adventures and research projects since this book was written!
