About the Book



Cousins' pionering account of his personal triumph over severe illness was the precurser of hundreds of articles and books dealing with the mind's ability to influence the body's health. Head First depicts Cousins' 10-year quest to find the proof that positive attitudes are actually biochemical factors which combat disease.
