Sweat by Bill Hayes
A lively, curious investigation of why and how humans move, tracing the history and cultural meanings of exercise from ancient athletic ideals to today’s fitness industry. Blending scientific research, historical anecdotes, and personal reflection, it examines the physiology of sweat, the promises and limits of exercise for health and identity, and the social, medical, and commercial forces that have shaped how we train our bodies. The result is an engaging exploration of sweat as both a biological response and a powerful social symbol.
