Editorial Reviews for Molecules Of Emotion: The Science Behind Mind-Body Medicine
|
|
Why do we feel the way we feel? How do our thoughts and emotions affect our health? Are our bodies and minds distinct from each other or do they function together as parts of an interconnected system? In her groundbreaking book Molecules of Emotion, Candace Pert provides startling and decisive answers to these and other challenging questions that scientists and philosophers have pondered for centuries. Her pioneering research on how the chemicals inside our bodies form a dynamic information network, linking mind and body, is not only provocative, it is revolutionary. By establishing the biomolecular basis for our emotions and explaining these new scientific developments in a clear and accessible way, Pert empowers us to understand ourselves, our feelings, and the connection between our minds and our bodies -- body-minds -- in ways we could never possibly have imagined before. Molecules of Emotion is a landmark work, full of insight and wisdom and possessing that rare power to change the way we see the world and ourselves.

Summary: Interesting Book
Comment: Candace Pert is a brilliant scientist whose knack for explaining the complex in terms that even novices like me can understand is a literary gift. I enjoyed her book and took away a great deal of meaningful information as well as seeds for further thought.

Summary: a book about peptides...oh wait no really it's a book about Candace Pert
Comment: this book need serious editing to make it readable
I was looking for a book about peptides, after having seen Candace Pert in What the Bleep, instead I found an annoying autobiography, read (waded through) only the first 50 pages that mostly were a string of "me, me, me and then maybe the way others see me" with little about peptides between the me
I respect Candace Pert as a scientist, that's why I'm giving two stars instead of one, but seriously, she's a self centered writer and that takes a lot away from the wonderful work she's done

Summary: Why Candace B. Pert Feels the way She Feels
Comment: "Molecules of Emotion: Why You Feel the Way You Feel" is mostly about why Candace B. Pert feels the way she feels. This is more about her life and research than about how you feel. She briefly discusses alternative medicine and talks about who she has met while lecturing.
While the title of the book does not accurately describe the contents, this is by no means a boring read. Candace B. Pert describes her life as a neuroscientist and then explores her own spirituality. If you want to know more about Candace B. Pert then this is your book. She discusses her life in detail and explains her passion for curing AIDS.
This book was not what I expected it to be so I have to say I agree with many of the one-star and five-star reviews. This book is exciting but has little to do with the emotions you and I feel. The only real information on emotions included a brief discussion of how repressed anger can cause cancer. If you are looking for something fascinating to listen to then I can recommend Your Body Is Your Subconscious Mind by Candace B. Pert.
If you are ready to explore how you can control your health through your thoughts I can highly recommend:
The Wisdom of Your Cells: How Your Beliefs Control Your Biology
The Biology Of Belief: Unleashing The Power Of Consciousness, Matter And Miracles

Summary: Wonderful!
Comment: This book is such an thrilling read! ...no mean feat when you consider that much of the discussion is about the intricacies of scientific research. Pert blends an insider's view of medical research with real-life health implications so wonderfully that I found myself alternating between reading quickly (eager to see what was next) and slowly (wanting to savor the book). The implications of her research in terms of health and well being are profound. I'd definitely recommend this book to anyone who is looking for scientific support for the mind-body connection!
