Hardback. Condition: Very Good. John T. Cacioppo's groundbreaking research topples one of the pillars of modern medicine and psychology: the focus on the individual as the unit of inquiry. By employing brain scans, monitoring blood pressure, and analyzing immune function, he demonstrates the overpowering influence of social context---a factor so strong that it can alter DNA replication.

Most important, he shows how we can break the trap of isolation for our benefit both as individuals and as a society.…
