The Quantified Self: The Ultimate Guide to Tracking Your Health and Maximizing Wellness
Not yet published
Expected 6 Oct 26A groundbreaking guide to using the latest science-based tools and data to maximize wellness and treat health issues.
Written by Gary Wolf, a former Wired magazine editor who co-founded a movement called The Quantified Self, this book will present the foundation of what Wolf calls Personal Science, or the use of empirical methods to answer everyday health questions. Often, the symptom-treating approach of western medicine fails, leaving people grasping for answers to address their health and wellness challenges. But what if we could help ourselves? What if we could use the latest self-tracking devices (Oura rings, wireless cardiac stickers, Apple watches and Fitbits, etc.) along with old-school scientific observation to improve our health measurably? Quantified Self will teach readers to do just that. The book will offer practical advice to begin a self-practice of observing and recording your own health data and patterns to address common problems around diet, exercise, sleep, and mental health. Also for sufferers of chronic disease—from conditions related to poor sleep, autoimmune disease, migraines, digestive distress, even Parkinson's—Quantified Self puts the power back in their hands.
