The Divided Mind

In his groundbreaking, perennially popular book that helped change the way we think about our health – now repackaged for a new generation of readers – Dr Sarno offers a guide to the range of psychosomatic (mindbody) disorders,  which can include chronic pain, carpal tunnel, sexual dysfunction, IBS and migraine. He describes their psychology, including how knowledge and awareness can have a restorative impact. Paving the way for bestsellers like The Body Keeps the Score, Sarno was among the first to explore the interaction between the conscious mind and repressed emotional pain in the unconscious mind that can be at the root of such disorders. 

Ingredients

Cheese puffs. Coffee. Sunscreen. Vapes. Hand sanitiser. George Zaidan reveals the weird science behind everyday items that may or may not kill you, depending on whom you ask.

If you want easy answers, this book is not for you. But if you’re curious which health studies to trust, what dense scientific jargon really means, and how to make better choices when it comes to food and health – dive right in!

Zaidan makes chemistry more fun than potions class as he reveals exactly what science can (and can’t) tell us about the packaged ingredients we buy in the supermarket. He demystifies the ingredients of life and death – and explains how we know whether something is good or bad for you – in exquisite, hilarious detail at breakneck speed.
