5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent study of the significance of stature in U.S. society,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Height of Your Life (Paperback)
What does it matter how tall you are? Keyes answers this question by undertaking an unscientific but thorough exploration of outliers on the bell curve of stature in the United States. The top three questions asked of tall people are: "How tall are you?", "Do you play basketball?", and "How's the weather up there?" Keyes asks, "Do you tire of those questions?" Short people are also asked their height, followed by, "You're not that short." Yikes! Keyes investigates the advantages and disadvantages to being a different size, ranging from the mechanical benefits to the emotional impact, to the impact on the wallet (Keyes says each inch buys about $700 more in salary annually). Why? Read the book!
