With its magazine-style design and inclusion of real student stories (both online and in the printed text), this text is the one that students can most relate to ;and the one that will most inspire them to choose a healthy lifestyle.     Health-related stories from real college students are woven throughout the book, accompanied by videos of real students on the book's Companion Website.
