The Genie in Your Genes

"Epigenetics--control of genes from outside the cell--is a brand new branch of science that promises a revolution in health and happiness. We used to think that our DNA determines much of our behavior as well as our physical characteristics. No more. Exciting new scientific research shows that many genes are being turned on and off -- every day -- by your beliefs, feelings, and attitudes. Every thought you think ripples throughout your body, affecting your immune system, brain, and hormone system."--Page 4 of cover
