Ruby's health quest - and the answers

With Dr Alan Maryon Davis as her guide, Ruby Wax resists the chocolate cakes and chips and describes her search for the answer to healthy living.

The book asks what health is, and looks at the different influences which affect it, including food, exercise, stress, obsessions and addictions, and complementary medicines.

It also discusses the options available to those who want to modify their lifestyle and make it a much healthier one - and the desperate measures that some people take.
