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!

Summary: Why you feel the way you feel!
Comment: Amazing... I am humbled to have read this book. It is amazing with it's empowering and enlightening insight. Amazing that it has been ten years since it's release. Imagine what there is to learn now...
