HEALTHY PLEASURES

Robert Ornstein and David Sobel

Addison-Wesley, 1989

Take a break from stressing over diet and exercise and explore the surprising health benefits of life's simple pleasures: the company of friends, listening to music, a hearty laugh, a glass of wine - even shopping. Find out how the modern world blunts sensual pleasures and how we are, by nature, 'primed' to receive pleasure as a way to promote good health.
