The 4-Hour Body: An Uncommon Guide to Rapid Fat-Loss, Incredible Sex, and Becoming Superhuman by Timothy Ferriss

3.0

This is a 2 1/2. I think Tim Ferriss is nuts... but something about him amuses me. Maybe it's his audaciousness... you can smell the arrogance in every page. He writes about a lot of things in here that he wants the reader to believe that he discovered... but he didn't... slow-carb is basically The Zone Diet (or Low Carb Diet) and a lot of his "discoveries" about the body and weight/muscle/fat control are bodybuilding tips that he's sharing with the mainstream. (I only know this - not as a bodybuilder - but because I had a friend that was into bodybuilding a few years back.)

I gave it a 2 1/2-3 stars because I did find it thought-provoking and did make me rethink about some of my behaviors with food and exercise.
