Superimmunity: Master Your Emotions and Improve Your Personal Health - Hardcover

It is Pearsall's thesis, backed by considerable medical research, that the mind-body connection is an essential component in fighting and preventing disease. Rather than relying on standard stress-associated concepts (e.g., Type A), Pearsall claims that a person's immune system runs either "hot" or "cold." Based on this insight, he offers a 30-day program that, if followed properly, should both strengthen one's immune system and assure emotional well-being. The program, a mix of behavioral training and positive thinking, requires discipline and time. Though Pearsall's disquisition is lengthy, delving into many associated topics, it shouldn't put off serious students of stress and its relationship to disease. A fine addition to any comprehensive self-help collection. Robert L. Jaquay, William K. Sanford Town Lib., Loudonville, N.Y.
