>I bought a copy of Candice Pert's book Molecules of Emotion at SEPA and
>read it over Spring Break. I loved it. She recounts the beginnings of
>psychoimmunoneurology and takes us from her beginnings in Snyder's lab to
>the present. The format follows what she might present to an audience. It
>was very readable. The narrative is on three levels. She talks about the
>science of how the opiate receptors were identified, how peptides work, and
>their locations throughout the body. It is her view that these peptides are
>the physical manifestation of, and source of, emotions. At another level,
>she discusses the dynamics of how the art of Science is REALLY done in
>America- politically. Finally, she shares her personal experiences
>including moments of discovery, her relationships, and how she has managed
>the integration of emotion, spirituality, and healing. I highly recommend
it.
