Summary: Best book ever on writing and health
Comment: Loved this book. Chapters were engaging and presented the evidence on writing and health in a balanced, rigorous manner. Sweeps away old notions about why writing improves health by presenting provocative new perspectives based on self-theory, emotion regulation, and social-cognitive theory. This is a must-read for scientists or practitioners interested in language, emotional expression, writing and health.

Rating: 1
Summary: Dry, dry, dry
Comment: This is strictly a rehash of Pennebaker's (and other's)research. Nothing new here if you've done much reading at all on the topic. Not for the individual looking to use writing in their own life...and not much here for the clinician looking for ways to incorporate writing into your practice.
