Dr. Gabor Mate: "When the Body Says No: Understanding the Stress-Disease Connection"
The Vancouver-based Dr. Gabor Mate argues that too many doctors seem to have forgotten what was once a commonplace assumption-that emotions are deeply implicated in both the development of illness and in the restoration of health. Based on medical studies and his own experience with chronically ill patients at the Palliative Care Unit at Vancouver Hospital, where he was the medical coordinator for seven years, Dr. Gabor Mate makes the case that there are important links between the mind and the immune system. He found that stress and individual emotional makeup play critical roles in an array of diseases. Ref. Source 7
