Tracy T. (charliebear) - , reviewed on 2/28/2013 + 26 more book reviews

This book is more about Dr. Pert's personal life and involvement in the discoveries related to learning about what she calls "the molecules of emotion" than it is about the science itself. That is to say, half of the book is about the science, while the other half is about Dr. Pert's behind-the-scenes love life and struggles that went on during her years of scientific work. Personally, I could have done without the gushing, hand wringing, self-congratulation and self-righteous indignation that keeps her swinging between chapters and moods.
