Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Influence of Joy
Further than this, the publication of Pavlov's observations had the consequence of intensifying scientific interest in the general subject of the physiological effects of the emotions. In various countries, and not least in the United States, able scientists followed Pavlov's example. Some studied, as he was studying, emotional effects on the functioning of the digestive organs, confirming and extending his find ings. Others investigated the in?uence of the emotions on the heart, arteries, lungs, kidneys, liver, etc. This work of research still is in progress, and will long be in progress, owing to the vastness and com plexity of its subject-matter. But already many discoveries have been made, of far reaching importance as regards the conser vation and restoration of health.
