''The 4-Hour Body: An Uncommon Guide to Rapid Fat-Loss, Incredible Sex, and Becoming Superhuman'' (2010) is the second book by American writer Tim Ferriss.〔(The 4-Hour Body ) ''Amazon.com''.〕 ==Background== Ferriss's first book, and the one that made him famous, was ''The 4-Hour Workweek''. Two facts informed his choice for his new book's topic: Firstly, he felt he did not want to write another book on business, as "I've said what I have to say about business. () I don't want to be 'The 4-Hour Workweek' guy; I'd prefer to be known for the way I approach the craft of writing and storytelling."〔Ferriss, Tim. (The 4-Hour Body: How Do You Follow Up A #1 Bestseller Without Repeating Yourself? ) ''Huffington Post''. December 14, 2010.〕〔Keen, Andrew. (Keen On...Tim Ferriss: How to Turn Your Body Into A Startup ) ''TechCrunch''. December 13, 2010.〕 Secondly, of the top ten Google searches bringing visitors to his weblog, four searches were some variation on "lose weight".〔 That, as he put it, left him with "no Option B. () my next book was going to be The 4-Hour Body, or I wasn’t going to write another book."〔 Ferriss spent three years interviewing over 200 experts, ranging from doctors to athletes to black-market drug salesmen.〔Susannah Cahalan. (The 4-hour body: Advice from the guy who knows everything ) ''New York Post''. December 10, 2010.〕 He claims to have recorded every workout he had done since the age of 18, and from 2004 (three years before his first book was published) he had tracked a variety of blood chemistry measurements, including insulin levels, hemoglobin A1c, and free testosterone.〔 ''The 4-Hour Body'' was published on December 14, 2010. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The 4-Hour Body」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
