About the book

"In this exploration, Dylan Evans exposes the flaws in the scientific research into the placebo effect and reveals the limits of what can and cannot be cured by thought alone. Drawing on new ideas in immunology and evolutionary biology, Evans proposes a new theory about how placebos work, and asks some searching questions about our concepts of health and disease."--Jacket.

First sentence: In the closing years of World War II, while the Allies were fighting to liberate Europe from German occupation, morphine was in great demand at the military field hospitals.
