by By Cousins, Norman
Category: Health & Fitness , General

In  Anatomy of an illness  (W.W. Norton, 1979), the late writer and editor recounted his recovery from an apparently terminal illness, a recovery he attributed largely to positive attitude and an active partnership with his physician. In this volume, he provides both anecdotal and empirical evidence to substantiate his belief in the medical efficacy of hope, faith, laughter, and the will to survive. First published in 1989 by E.P. Dutton. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
