"[E]veryone's health - including that of the next generation - may depend more on the health of society and the healing of nations than on the conquest of disease." Norman Cousins' experience with a massive heart attack is used as a case study in how to mobilize inner resources to overcome fear and panic. He also he generalizes from his experience with life-threatening illness to examine the experience of life-threatened humanity.
