An Apple A Day

Always seek out the seed of triumph in every adversity.
 -- Og Mandino

What makes us healthy, wealthy and wise?

The Harvard Grant Study - 70 Years of Research on a group of young men of the 1940's.  The study provided psychologist with a large body of individualized data over a wide range of years.  A similar database involves the Comprehensive Soldier Fitness  program developed for the Army with the help of Martin Seligman.


Triumphs of Experience by George E. Vaillant looks into the vast amounts of data from the Harvard Grant Study and comes away with an interesting analysis of human behavior.  Chris Gondek interviews George E. Vaillant on The Invisible Hand podcast.
