Up

A positive attitude is important, but until now we didn't know just how important. In Up, a practicing physician and NIH-funded researcher draws on her research and experience to show that our outlook on life -- our unique patterns of thinking and feeling about ourselves, others, and the world -- may be the key to how well and how fast we age. From wrinkles to cognitive decline, our outlook affects our health at every level. Using the 7 Steps of Attitudinal Change that she applies to her own patients, Tindle offers us a path toward healthy aging. Prescriptive, accessible, and rich with case studies, Up puts forward a paradigm shift in how we age and treat disease, giving even the most struggling optimists a chance for hope.
