Jon Franklin: Molecules of the Mind

“Molecules of the Mind takes us on a fantastic journey to the center of the human mind—and beyond, into the soul. Describing the revolu­tionary discoveries of a new science, it reveals how we can now understand—and even see—the chemical changes in the brain that create personality, the sex drive, dreams, schizophrenia, and such euphoric feelings as the well-known runner's high.
It is a book that will challenge your beliefs about mental illness, alco­hol and drug addiction, and even love. Dramatic and incredibly pow­erful, this stunning work heralds the promise of a better world ... or the terror that an age of "mind control" could bring.
A bombshell, says James W Howe, president of the National Alli­ance for the Mentally III. "It will rank with the great works of this century." The Washington Post Book World praised Molecules of the Mind as "intriguing ... exciting." Booklist found it "thoroughly engrossing," while Dr. Robert O. Pasnu, president the American Psychiatric Association, called it "an adventure book as exciting and thrilling as any story of intrigue and human tragedy in the book­stores today.“
