It was an eye opener to me though how imagination and thoughts of the future is really influenced by the past and the present.
Shakespeare's comments that "There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so" is spot on with this book. The brain really influences how we feel about anything... and in certain respects we can control that feeling (I think) :-)


I loved this book, but I didn't realize there was a PBS special. Just looked it up online. Thanks!

Even for a non psychology background its good to know the chemistry going within our brain to understand why we feel or react the way we do.
