"Never ceases to be fascinating and compassionate!"  -- Entertainment Weekly

Forensic science is all the rage. But does our interest in death tell us anything about how to live?   As a medical
examiner and popular television forensic expert, Dr. Jan Garavaglia can’t really tell us how to live, but she can tell us
how to avoid dying. In How Not to Die, Dr. G does just that, providing a radical new philosophy for understanding human
health and
how to live healthier, longer lives.

The premise is simple: by using death as a starting point, we can identify the ways we harm our bodies and use that
information to live better, and longer. Dr. G tackles a host of health issues from this unique perspective, including:

• DEAD WEIGHT: how being both too fat and too thin can kill you

• UP IN SMOKE: lung cancer, impotence, and strokes

• MAN’S LAST MISTAKE: a primer on men, life’s most prolific death machine

• HIGHWAY TO THE MORGUE: stupid car mistakes that are a ticket to death
