  • Anatomy of an Illness as Perceived By the Patient (by Norman Cousins)
    http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Anatomy-of-an-Illness-as-Perceived-By-the-Patient/Norman-Cousins/e/9780393326840
    The classic account of the late Norman Cousins and his successful fight against a crippling disease. It is the story of an unusual partnership between a physician and a patient and how together they were able to beat back the odds. The doctor's genius lay in helping the patient use his own powers: laughter, courage, tenacity. The patient's talent was in mobilizing his body's own natural healing resources, proving what an effective weapon the mind can be in the war against disease. Norman Cousins' remarkable story has since been told in leading medical and lay journals around the world. It provides a striking example of how one man responded to a major health challenge – and won.
