Dean Ornish's "Love & Survival : 8 Pathways To Intimacy And Health"
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. Dean Ornish's "Love & Survival : 8 Pathways To Intimacy And Health" addresses a very fundamental instinct of every human being: individualism. That this quest for uniqueness asserts itself in every aspect of one's existence is paramount to the extent of prosocial behavior and how that relates to one's levels of health and intimacy. From the author's perspective, one can readily surmise that to be unique within a world of sameness is a quest sought by many people; however, it is by way of such an objective that one becomes labeled as selfish and introverted – consciously divorced from the requisite human connections that establish a healthful existence. No additional sources cited.
