Title: The Sickening Mind Pdf Brain, Behaviour, Immunity and Disease
‘A masterpiece of popularization’ Times Literary Supplement
‘A fascinating account, based on objective scientific research, of the ways in which mental states affect the individual’s liability to disease… Martin is a highly civilised scientist, who seasons his text with witty parentheses. He also provides many examples from literature, ranging widely from Shakespeare, Goethe and Hardy to Tolstoy, Dostoevsky and Kafka… Interesting, informative and a pleasure to read.’ ANTHONY STORR, Sunday Times
‘Excellent’ JON TURNEY, Financial Times
‘This most accessible account of a difficult subject blows away some prejudices and pleasingly justifies others… Martin is a biologist whose style is considerate of the layman…and it is a tribute to his own benignly infectious enthusiasm for his subject that his closing thoughts are encouraging… Remarkable.’ ALAN JUDD, Daily Telegraph
‘Compelling… Balanced and impressively up to date… The tone of voice, the open-minded but critical intelligence should uplift the quality of the debate… Martin’s lucid account of possible mechanisms of the connections between mental states and personality traits and illnesses is a notable triumph of his book… Excellent.’ RAYMOND TALLIS, Times Literary Supplement
Enlightening, A must read for reductionists and mystics alike. For reductionists: it might change your mind to look beyond the material world for the cause and cure of disease. For the mystic: a ray of light in the skeptic post Victorian world of cold materialistic empiricism.Astounding examples This book fundamentally changed the way I see people, health and life. It is full of great insights into stress and its effects on personal health. Everyone knows that stress can negatively affect our health but this book brings home, how and why and just how great the impact is. The author provides many great real world examples of the negative effect of stress in specific individual instances as well as its effect on larger populations. The examples are astounding, objective and detailed.Go Figger Very interesting and well researched for the most part, but too long-winded in a few places. The author’s overall writing style is quite clear and straightforward, and not at all saturated in scientific or psychological jargon. A good and enlightening read.
