5.0 out of 5 stars Mind over matter, 11 Mar 2009

By	H. J. Ahluwalia "the seeker" (Edinburgh, Scotland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As a successful clinician I have 'known' for some time that my own optimism affects patient recovery. 'The Mind & The Brain' is a must read for all those people seeking enlightenment in the area of the New Biology... it makes scientific sense of all those everyday phases that we use like..
'Sit up and listen' or 'Use it or loose it' or 'mind over matter'.
If we only realised that our thoughts, words and deeds become literal manifestations in OUR lives we would be careful what we thought, said and did! I read this book with much relish and relief.

5.0 out of 5 stars Opens New Doors (PETA members Beware), 31 Jan 2009

By	Mr. A. A. Walker - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

So much in one book! A cure for OCD, a link between Buddhism ans Western science, and many graphic descriptions of animal experiments that will jog anyone's conciousness (anyone for sewing up a kitten's eyelid?). Oh and quantum physics also for good measure

So - for me at least - not exactly a page turner - had to ration myself to morning reads when my own brain was sharpest - but full of stimulating propositions. Please read!
