Counterclockwise
Mindful Health and the Transformative Power of Possibility
by Ellen J. Langer

Ballantine Hardcover. On sale May 19th, 2009.
224 pages (5 ½ x 8 ¼)

“Take a smart, creative social scientist, without any respect for conventional wisdom and you get Ellen Langer. She is a fantastic storyteller, and Counterclockwise is a fascinating story about the unexpected ways in which our minds and bodies are connected.  More importantly, Counterclockwise shows how a better understanding of this relationship can lead to a better life.”
––Dan Ariely, Ph.D., author of
Predictably Irrational: The Hidden Forces that Shape Our Decisions

Counterclockwise presents a new way to think about lifelong health and aging. Read this most important book to improve your quality of life at any age.”
––Deepak Chopra

Counterclockwise is a gem—a book that is equally practical and philosophical without seeming to be either, and one that makes you feel better––more conscious and more prepared—about growing old, even if you weren’t feeling bad about it in the first place.  There is no one thinking more creatively about sickness and health than Ellen Langer, and she shares what she knows here with uncommon felicity.”
––Sue Halpern, author of Can’t Remember What I Forgot: The Good News from the Front Lines of Memory Research
