Psychosomatic medicine . is an important and inescapable aspect of medicine." From the Foreword by Dr. Lawrence E. Lamb. Drawing on the latest medical and psychiatric research in psychosomatics, this lively, up~to~date report explores the biochemistry of emotion to explain in nontechnical language the mechanisms by which physical symptoms can arise in response to prolonged mental conflicts. Your "mind" and your "body" are actually integrated parts of your whole being. Emotion can alter your endocrine balance; impair your blood supply and blood pressure; impede your digestion; change your breathing and temperature. A sustained state of emotional stress can cause changes that lead to disease. One of the most compelling findings reported in this book is that people with certain character traits are likely to suffer from particular illnesses. Peptic ulcer sufferers commonly hunger for love. Some types of cancer are linked to feelings of hopelessness and despair. In women, guilt and fear can obstruct menstruation, intercourse, and childbirth. In men, resentment toward women can lead to impotence and sterility. The heart and circulatory system are especially vulnerable to emotional stress, often giving rise to hypertension and heart attacks. Despite the alarming increase in the incidence of psychosomatic disorders related to current stresses, the psychosomatic approach is still widely misunderstood by laymen and~while gaining increasing recognition in medicine~is still ignored by many physicians. Howard R. and Martha E. Lewis demonstrate that "psychosomatic medicine bridges the gap between psychiatry and medicine." A host of startling case histories, culled from professional journals, dramatizes in personal terms the scope of psychosomatics and its significance for your own health problems and those of your family and friends.…
