Negative Positive
Title: Poor scholarship
Review: Interpret this as you will, but this book does not take a scientific approach to the study of stress, preferring to rely on ancient medicine and holistic body-mind-spirit ideas.Unfortunately, the author not only departs from scientific fact, but also from common-sense scientific methodology. Evidence for "cell memory" is an unverified story of an unnamed woman who had cravings for beer and chicken nuggets after recieving a heart transplant from a motorcyclist. Einstein proved that E=mc^2; even scientists admit the universe is a friendly place made of spiritual energy! These statements reflect poor understanding and scholarship by the author and turn an interesting, harmless book on holistic health into an embarassing lesson on what happens when you believe everything you hear.
