Natural Causes: An Epidemic of Wellness, the Certainty of Dying, and Killing Ourselves to Live Longer by Barbara Ehrenreich | Conversation Starters
Medical screenings that help prevent serious ailments and new fads about body-mind, mindfulness, diet and fitness techniques do not really prolong your life. Statistics show that lab tests that supposedly lead to early detection of sickness and thus help prevent death don’t show lessened mortality rates. Provocative journalist Barbara Ehrenreich reveals this conclusion in her newest book. Should we listen to her when she suggests that instead of working hard to keep the immune system in top shape, we should just allow our bodies to function naturally towards death?
This book is written by 2018 Erasmus Prize winner for her investigative work in journalism.
