1. Sweat Equity – Inside the New Economy of Mind and Body, by Jason Kelly
Excerpt from the publisher’s press release:
“In a modern world filled with anxiety, pressure, and competition, people are spending more time and money than ever before to soothe their minds and tone their bodies, sometimes pushing themselves to the most extreme limits.
Sweat Equity: Inside the New Economy of Mind and Body explores the rise of the health and wellness movement through the eyes of those who are driving, paying for and profiting from it. Whether it’s technology, nutrition plans or new workout fads, enormous market opportunities exist for those bold enough to invest in the business of health, lifestyle and well-being.”
