IN PRAISE OF WALKING - SHANE OMARA TASCHENBUCH

'Informative and persuasive enough to rouse the most ardent couch pototo' New Scientist   
Walking upright on two feet is a uniquely human skill. It defines us as a species.    It
enabled us to walk out of Africa and to spread as far as Alaska and Australia. It freed our
hands and freed our minds. We put one foot in front of the other without thinking - yet how
many of us know how we do that  or appreciate the advantages it gives us? In this hymn to
walking  neuroscientist Shane O'Mara invites us to marvel at the benefits it confers on our
bodies and minds  and urges us to appreciate - and exercise - our miraculous ability.   'Will
leave you itching to go out for a good old-fashioned stroll' Mail on Sunday    *A Sunday
Independent Book of the Week*
