A Personal Note
An upbeat and thought-provoking talk by the late author and researcher Norman Cousins (Anatomy of An Illness, The Healing Heart and other best-selling books) in which he tells a hospital audience, "We become ill because we are ready for the illness."
Cousins -- noted for his own well-tested prescriptions for laughter in the combat of serious illness -- eloquently challenges many accepted practices of modern medicine and offers strategies for healing and life-long well-being.
