Synopsis

In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Michael F. Roizen and Dr. Mehmet C. Oz bust the myths and stereotypes about the way we view ourselves -- and how we define beauty.

Most people think that beauty revolves around such things as lipstick, sweet eyes, or skinny jeans -- all those things that we can see (and obsess over) in the mirror. But the fact is that beauty isn't some superficial pursuit, and it's not some random act that you can thank (or curse) your ancestors for.

There are, in fact, scientific standards to beauty. Beauty is purposeful because it's how humans have historically communicated who we are to potential mates. Beauty, in fact, is really about your health and happiness.

In these pages, you'll find out why beauty isn't as much about your vanity as it is about your humanity. Dr. Roizen and Dr. Oz take a scientific, informative, and entertaining look at the three levels of beauty and explain how they all work together to form a complete and authentic YOU. With their usual candor and honesty, the doctors break down the mechanics of beauty and explain how little adjustments in your routine can help you become a happier, healthier person.

Goodreads review by Susan on January 21, 2009

I felt that this book was just TOO MUCH! It seemed like such a hodgepodge of tons and tons of information, that I'm not even sure how much of it will stay with me. My other problem is that very little of the information provided was actually new to me. Let me break it down for you: 1. too much sun in......more

This is such a great book for teens and young people and may answer some questions for adults. There are a lot of simple tips, health science and common-knowledge information about basic self care, as well as a more indepth and scientific look at why the authors are suggesting the tips.

I found this book to be quite interesting and possibly not quite the way I had thought it would be. There was a lot of interesting information and the diagrams weren't serious but were helpful with the written explanations. I did walk away from it with more knowledge than I had. A couple of the take......more
