The Perfect Medicine is a wonderful gem of a book* Adharanand Finn, best-selling author of Running with the Kenyans and host of The Way of the Runner *
Fresh, lyrical, and deeply personal, The Perfect Medicine is a stirring celebration of running — not just the how, but the many levels of why. * Alex Hutchinson, author of Endure *
Part biography, part history, part scientific inquiry, The Perfect Medicine compels you to keep turning the page as Ramin explores wide-ranging aspects of the sport of running from the perspective of a traveler, scholar, physician, and always, avid runner. * Jonathan Beverly, author and Editor-in-Chief of PodiumRunner *
