Overview

More people die from heart attacks and heart disease in the United States than from any other malady. Cousins should know; a massive heart attack nearly killed him in 1980.

This dramatic account of that trauma highlights the importance of the patient's role in combating serious illness.

Cousins addresses the problem of panic and helplessness produced by any serious illness. He describes techniques for liberating ourselves from fear, that corrosive companion that always makes a difficult situation worse.

This reading of THE HEALING HEART was orginally recorded for radio and is slightly abridged.
