From the back cover:

The practical guide that's guaranteed to take the guilt out of standing - or sitting - idly by.

Vic Ziegel and Lewis Grossberger are the pseudonyms of a pair of rich and successful sneaker manufacturers who frankly are ashamed of the social and physical ills they have caused by conspiring to make running fashionable as a means of boosting world sneaker sales. Writing this book was their way of atoning for the damage they've done and of preventing further harm from coming to future generations.

A paperback from 1978 containing a sort of sports humor which I suspect may be a bit outdated today, although as a non-runner myself (my legs can't handle running; I do walk quite a bit) the title does strike a chord. Found in the book-excange shelf of the local public library.

Oh, and there's a 1978 review of the book from Sports Illustrated online.

P.s. I just realized this was the 900th book registered by me :-)

Left this book in the Book Swap shelves on my way to Italy. Happy trails!

Picked this up from Helsinki airport Book Swap Lounge on my way to the Adriatic Sea Cruise. Looks exactly my kind of book!!!

I already knew all there was to know about non/walking,so left the book in the beautiful old town of Split.

HI ! If I do remember right , we found this book in Split/Croatia during our Balkan road trip in 2014. We took it home to Munich.
Finally, I gave it to an open bookcase in Munich/Nordbad.
Happy journey.
