Mostly Nonfiction Book Club

We all take more than 25,000 breaths each day, usually without giving much thought to the process. Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what breathing is. Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, Breath turns the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head. You will never breathe the same again. (280 pages)
