About this Item

London. HarperCollins. 1997. First Edition/First Printing (1 in number line on copyright page). Hard Cover. Turquoise cloth boards with silver spine titles. Fore edge is slightly aged but minor. Book and dust wrapper are fine. 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.'
