The male hormone, Hardcover – January 1, 1945

5.0 out of 5 stars 2 ratings

In this thrilling scientific detective story Paul de Kruif tells of the male hormone's rise from its original sexual dis-reputability to its present promise of lifting the total vitality of mankind. The male hormone discloses magic far beyond the merely sexual. It boosts muscle power. It banishes mental fatigue. It eases heart pain. It even restores the sanity of men in midlife who suffer from male hormone hunger. Just as chemicals renew worn-out soil, so the male hormone seems to renew the tissues of aging men. The book is elaborately documented with numerous case histories, dramatic, touching and humorous. These hormone hunters are shown by Paul de Kruif as a new breed of men against death, fighting not physical demise but the far sadder living death of premature old age.
