}This eloquent book takes us on a spell-binding journey into the
workings of our bodies in health and disease. Dr. Charles A.
Pasternak captivates us with his vivid and even poetic explanations
of what keeps us healthy and vital, and what tears away at our
health. He possesses the gift for rendering complex topics clear
and lyrical, as in the ways our molecules interact with one another
to decide the fate of our heart, brain, and lungs---whether we live
or die.Why does disease rear its ugly head? Why does cancer take
hold in some of us and pass by others? What roles do nutrition and
stress play in determining our chances for a long, fulfilling life?
Can we hold our eventual demise at bay by trying novel drugs and
therapies? Dr. Pasternak also explores to what extent the illnesses
we sufferand even our level of intelligenceare dependent on the
genes we inherit from our parents, or the food we eat, or even the
environment we inhabit. The story of our bodies is a true saga that
has never before been so engrossingly told. }
