For years, North Americans have been seeking rational, analytical answers to despair and anxiety. But now, this rational Western perception of consciousness has been challenged by an Eastern discipline which brings into sharp focus the travesty and deception underlying many of the contemporary awareness movements. Yet it is also the author's intent to combat the easy criticisms of the super-rationalists who dismiss every new development as the irresponsible inventions of the "guru-of-the-month club." He offers not only the finding of extensive scientific research on the brain, but also the valuable discoveries of personal experience. There is no one who is better qualified to assess our modern approach to matters of the mind than Robert Ornstein, and he does so with clarity, wit and utter persuasiveness.

\"Je reicher das Leben an Freude, Genuss und Lust, desto gesünder der Mensch.\" Neueste empirische Untersuchen aus Medizin, Biologie und Psychologie liegen dieser unorthodoxen These der beiden renommierten Autoren zugrunde. Robert Ornstein und David Sobel zeigen eindrucksvoll, wie eine liebevolle Umarmung, ein witziger Film, ein Glas Wein zu einem guten Essen in geselliger Runde mehr bei der Bekämpfung von Krankheiten auszurichten vermögen als Askese, Medikamente und Diäten. Leben Sie also nach dem \"Lustprinzip\". Folgen Sie Ihren Sinnen. Verwöhnen Sie sich und andere. Und erleben Sie, wie aus den vielen kleinen Freuden des Alltags Gesundheit entsteht.
