Popular author Taylor Clark draws on cutting-edge research in this enlightening exploration of stress—and how to tackle it constructively. Using such divergent examples as Russian sub commanders and game show contestants, Clark shows that most people experience stress the same way. Those who understand how to accept it without freezing can accomplish what needs to get done.
This book is grounded in sceince, but has a nice balance of anecdotal stories to go along with it. The writing is accessible and the voice has a good sense of humor. Very enjoyable.
