A New York Times Most Anticipated Book of the SummerA taboo-busting romp through the shame, stink, and strange science of sweating.Sweating may be one of our weirdest biological functions, but it’s also one of our most vital and least understood. In The Joy of Sweat, Sarah Everts delves into its role in the body—and in human history.Why is sweat salty? Why do we sweat when stressed? Why do some people produce colorful sweat? And should you worry about Big Brother tracking the hundreds of molecules that leak out in your sweat—not just the stinky ones or alleged pheromones—but the ones that reveal secrets about your health and vices?Everts’s entertaining investigation takes readers around the world—from Moscow, where she participates in a dating event in which people sniff sweat in search of love, to New Jersey, where companies hire trained armpit sniffers to assess the efficacy of their anti-sweat products. In Finland, Everts explores the delights of the legendary smoke sauna and the purported health benefits of good sweat, while in the Netherlands she slips into the sauna theater scene, replete with costumes, special effects, and towel dancing.Along the way, Everts traces humanity’s long quest to control sweat, culminating in the multibillion-dollar industry for deodorants and antiperspirants. And she shows that while sweating can be annoying, our sophisticated temperature control strategy is one of humanity’s most powerful biological traits.Deeply researched and written with great zest, The Joy of Sweat is a fresh take on a gross but engrossing fact of human life.

I think that anyone interested in human biology would enjoy this book. Science writer Sarah Everts investigates one of the most important human functions, sweating. Being able to cool our bodies efficiently became essential to our survival as a species from the beginning, and Everts reviews some evolutionary biology on this point. However, this is definitely not a dry science book, since Everts also describes her personal experiences with:1) A trip to a traditional Finnish sauna;2) A "Smell Dating" event in Moscow;3) The sauna theater scene in the Netherlands;Everts also discusses our history of efforts to control our sweat. She writes with a humorous yet informative approach that I enjoyed.
