The Comfort Crisis: Embrace Discomfort to Reclaim Your Wild, Happy, Healthy Self by Michael Easter
annenichols's review
slow-paced
1.0
Intriguing concept which was very poorly delivered. The tone is broey and sexist. The science delivered is surface-level with some inaccuracies. The animal killing was unnecessary. The argument that he was doing caribou a favor by killing them fell flat. There’s a weird dismissal of meditation, running, and vegetarianism. I was excited to be done.

This generation needs this book. In a time of comfort and luxury and sedentary life, this book gets to the solution with science and first hand experience.

The studies he quotes are interesting, but the rest of the book is bogged down by his Alaska trip which wasn't that interesting to me.

While I do feel there were some valuable takeaways from the book, I feel the author is inconsistent and hypocritical in many of his claims.
