But what actually matters most to our health and longevity? What has the most robust, actionable evidence? What's the junk you can skip?

Using a diverse array of rich case studies - from pop culture, TV, movies, sports, politics, and history - the authors show how nearly every business and personal interaction has a game-theory component to it.
