520 |a The idea of "healing thoughts" has long been suspect, but scientists have recently uncovered evidence that our minds have the power to ease pain, fight off infections and heart disease and even slow the progression of AIDS and some cancers. In Cure, award-winning writer Jo Marchant travels the world to meet the physicians, patients and researchers on the cutting edge of this new world of medicine. Drawing on the very latest research, she lays out the vast potential of our mind's ability to heal and explains, with clarity and compassion, how we can use these findings in our own lives.
