Customer Rating:      Summary: WOW! This book is amazing! Comment: Molecules of Emotion is a book that will forever change the way you think about science. Although the first two chapters are fairly technical the rest of the book is extremely readable. Lots of information about how our minds and bodies are linked and the sceince behind it. Truly a great read for anyone interested in emotional wellbeing.
Customer Rating:      Summary: First class subject material Comment: Pert has done a first class job of making the scientific link between the role of consciousness, the way it's facilitated by the brain and its resultant effect upon body chemistry (neuro-peptides/hormones carrying molecules of emotion that have the potential to change our DNA).
Gary Bate author of 'We are here to know ourselves'
Customer Rating:      Summary: Finally a scientist makes me understand what I didn't before Comment: I have an M.Sc degree in molecular biology, and for many years my mother (a psychologist) was trying to convince me of the link between body and mind, which I didn't disbelieve, but also couldn't understand from a biological point of view.
After reading the enlightening "Biology of belief" by Bruce Lipton, I devoured this one in a week and I wish there were more books like this. Pert gains her credibility during the first 100 pages in her description of the scientific life in a lab: in that part she also makes me regain my drive and excitement about discovery, in a moment (my PhD) where sometimes some experiments do go wrong!
The book was for me very easy to follow and definetely inspiring. I would suggest it to anyone who cannot get convinced about complementary therapies and power of our brains by those who don't seem credible enough because of their backgroud and lexicon. And like stated before, it's an excellend autobiography of a female scientist. I loved it! Now my mom is up reading it, and next will be my boyfriend and a friend doing her PhD in neuroscience!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Fascinating Comment: A great read. It's full of real science, but has a real human thread to it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: An excellent and thought provoking book. Comment: It's not very often that books on the body/mind connection are written by people with serious scientific credentials but this is definitely one that is.
Candace Pert describes in great detail but also in great clarity how she discovered the role of natural opiates and thereafter the body mind connection that gave us the new science of psycho-neuro-immunolgy.
A gripping read and a fascinating insight into what the mind really is .
