书籍简介

拉扎鲁斯博士（Dr Lazarus）是一位杰出的人物，而这本书拥有最美妙的基调。这本书不鼓吹人们对变老的恐慌，而是鼓励读者以和年轻人同样的乐观和决心，迎接未来的岁月；本书也展现了他的研究带来的好消息——科学证明，保持积极主动的态度可以保持身体的年轻健康，避免产生与年龄相关的疾病。

他的生活方式蓝图告诉我们，我们所能做到的积极的改变，那些既简单又容易付诸行动的改变，是可以帮助我们在以后的生活中或得回报，让我们享受一个独立而富有成效的晚年生活的。他带来的最关键的一部分信息是：衰老不是一种疾病，除非我们把它变成疾病——与衰老相关的疾病其实与我们的行为和生活方式有着密切的关联，它并不是衰老过程的一个固有的产物。

拉扎鲁斯博士作为健康地变老这一过程的研究者的经历，再加上他作为一名医生和一个正在变老的人的经历，他所创作的这本《拉扎鲁斯策略》让我们认清变老的过程，使我们能够掌控我们自己的未来。

《拉扎鲁斯策略》一部分是操作指南，一部分是宣言，它以机智和严谨的笔触，为健康地变老提供了科学证明和实用的建议。这本书就像《如何长寿》（How Not To Die ）和《我们为什么睡觉》（Why We Sleep）一样，赋予我们力量，给我们提供了我们所需要的工具，让我们生活得更加长久，更加健康。

The blueprint for healthy ageing and longevity, by 84-year-old physician, research scientist, champion cyclist - Dr Norman Lazarus.

We are all living longer. The World Health Organisation predicts that by 2050 there will be two billion people over 60 with 434 million of those over 80 years of age. But there's a catch: the quality of those extra years of life is shockingly poor. Many of us will find ourselves living with diseases and dependent on non-curative drugs and health carers as a result. We are not ageing well nor wisely.

Dr Norman Lazarus, 84, is an exception. He is an expert on the physiology of healthy human ageing and living proof that our later years can be lived well. Even now, in his eighties, he leads an active and medication-free lifestyle, regularly walking and cycling long distances. Dr Lazarus has now written a remarkable book, with the aim of helping others to stay well for longer.

The Lazarus Strategy is a part how-to and part manifesto on the art of healthy ageing to guide readers along the path to a more active, productive, independent future and a medication-free life. Norman will show us that our lifestyle choices now will determine how we will age through our golden years and how fast - in the future. The three main factors crucial to keeping healthy are physical activity, food and the mind. Norman explains how each of these affect ageing and how we need to make changes to these areas of our life from the age of 50 and beyond.
