This book is a great resource for a wide range of mind/body health issues. Although there are some sources/references that aren't as "legit" (previous reviewer's comment), there a ton of scholarly articles. And this book compiles most of the good literature and research that exists on mind/body health topics.

What could be more All American than "the power of positive thinking" or "positive mental attitude"? Norman Vincent Peale, Dale Carnegie and Napoleon Hill sold millions of books in the twentieth century, and inspirational self-help books about happiness are a big trend today.
