Sobre o Autor

Norman Cousins was an influential American journalist, author, and peace activist, known for his advocacy of the therapeutic effects of humor and laughter on health. He served as the editor of the Saturday Review for over three decades, during which he wrote extensively on a range of social, political, and health-related issues. Cousins was a pioneer in exploring the connections between the mind and body, particularly in the context of serious illness. His own battle with a debilitating disease led him to experiment with laughter as a means of healing, ultimately documenting his experiences in his best-selling book, 'Anatomy of an Illness.'
