This is a how-to book from one of the big names in weight training, who knows not only what works for him, but what will work for you. The Runner's Handbook Penguin, 1996. Here's a new edition of a classic running book that was first printed in 1975, so we can say that generations of runners have used it to get started running, improve their running, and become racers and marathoners. Running style, schedules, diet, stress management, and advice for young and older runners are all here. Even if you have been running for years, you can always learn something new.
Runners like to read about running.
Read this one. The Green Pharmacy St. Martin's, 1997. You can't spend much time reading about medicinal herbs without seeing his name. Dr. Duke spent 30 years as a researcher with the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture and has traveled the world over to study herbs. This is one book that you will be glad was written in the first person, because his experiences really are interesting.
