The Biology of Belief

I've mentioned this book at length in a blog article called the Psychobiology of Suggestion. I found the first half of the book an utter revelation as Bruce Lipton shatters the central dogma of biology - that genes drive behaviour, by showing intriguing evidence for the primacy of the environment. If he's right it offers an amazing justification for mind/body approaches. The second half Lipton leaves his area of expertise and makes connections to quantum physics and spirituality that I found less convincing, but worth the price just for the first 60 pages. A must read.
