As a healthcare professional myself, I see firsthand the wellness movement that is occurring. People are realizing how the standard Western medical “health care” system is failing many. The Urban Body Fix advocates and promotes true wellness, as Larry calls it “vibrant health.” This book will be a valuable tool for anyone looking to keep themselves and their families in true health. Larry is a rare breed of health care professional who believes in the middle ground. You will never hear Larry advocating for any fad diet or extreme detox. I’m blessed to know Larry and get to hear his pearls of wisdom on a one-to-one basis. Larry’s voice comes through clearly and accurately in The Urban Body Fix. Now people all over the world can experience his wisdom. Thank you, Larry for writing this book. I look forward to referring it to all my clients who are on their wellness journeys." -- ALYSE FAITH SHYNE, LMT, OWNER AND FOUNDER, THE HEALING COLLECTIVE NY Book Review 2: "Larry Rogowsky and The Urban Body Fix have accomplished a rare feat in this book: that of delivering a broad range of unique wellness including mental, physical, theoretical and practical tips with a conscious voice that stem from his own depth of experience.

Reflecting on the City Through Literature


Book Description

This book develops and demonstrates an interdisciplinary method that reads literary works as a way of thinking about the city. Literary works do not only provide reflections of the city – depictions of the city as an aesthetically compelling setting – but the literary reflection of the city also offers a critical reflection on the city. How can spatial difference be conceived in cities that are changing beyond the form of the classical modern metropolis of the early 20th century? How can one think of the relation between individual urban subjects and their urban environment, when neither spaces nor discourses of the city provide them with an answer to the question where they might "belong"? How does the human body interact with its urban surroundings, and how should technological mediations be thought of? This book approaches these questions through analysing literary texts, focusing on concepts like heterotopia, non-place and the posthuman. This book will be of interest to interdisciplinary scholars and students of the city, particularly in the fields of Urban Studies, Literary Studies, Geography, and Architecture.
