Fitting into Your Genes: Healthy Living And Eating in Philadelphia

by Susan Reid

The book is intended to present the true fitness of Philadelphia, a place that inspires individualism and the development of mind, body, and spirit. Philadelphia is currently undergoing a phenomenal revitalization that is putting the city back into the national spotlight. The writer takes readers on a tour of two key neighborhoods in Philadelphia that reflect these changes, Center City and University City. By applying her definition of quality of life through historic preservation, intellectual, cultural, spiritual life, and opportunities for dining out, among other criteria, the writer reveals the re-emergence of a city that is taking its rightful place among cities in the nation which it founded. Philadelphia can show the world what it means to be fit.
