studies and practical guidance here can help readers make
life-changing decisions."--Library Journal
"Weil, who may be the nation's foremost advocate for integrative
medicine...meticulously explains why the multitude of medicines
prescribed in America is problematic....In all, a sensible approach
to reducing what Weil correctly identifies as our 'excessive
reliance on medication.'"--Booklist
"Weil's program aims for 'positive emotionality'-a far better
destination than the roller-coaster ride between bliss and despair.

revelations and insights from his own lifelong battle with
depression lift this guide from a hip and clinical 'how to' to a
generous and heartfelt 'here's how.'"--Publishers Weekly
"Weil's revolutionary book casts a critical eye on modern medicine,
examining the very serious risks that medicine can carry....Those
who seek to understand the ramifications of overmedicating, are
interested in the impact of modern medicine, or want to learn
alternative therapies and how to take an active role in their
health care will appreciate this book."--Library Journal
