Notes on a Nervous Planet

De: Matt Haig

Narrado por: Matt Haig

The world is messing with our minds. Rates of stress and anxiety are rising. A fast, nervous planet is creating fast and nervous lives. We are more connected yet feel more alone. And we are encouraged to worry about everything from world politics to our body mass index.

• How can we stay sane on a planet that makes us mad?
• How do we stay human in a technological world?
• How do we feel happy when we are encouraged to be anxious?

After experiencing years of anxiety and panic attacks, these questions became urgent matters of life and death for Matt Haig. And he began to look for the link between what he felt and the world around him.

Notes on a Nervous Planet is a personal and vital look at how to feel happy, human and whole in the 21st century.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Warm and wise. If the modern world is making you anxious, this is the perfect book for you." (Claudia Hammond, BBC Radio 4)

"Examines how the world infiltrates our minds, and how to cope with its manifold distractions." (Anita Sethi)

"Is the modern world doing our heads in? Matt Haig shares our fears and gives answers to the question from many different angles. An enthralling book." (Jo Brand)

I needed this.

A lot of the concepts discussed in this book has been told and explained to me in various formats and on various platforms. But Matt makes it human.

Monotonic diatribe

Look, I want to understand this illness, but this was too much of a pity party for me. A continuing road of pessimism delivered in a single toned unenamoring voice. If the message was that this is an illness of neverending abyss, then it achieves the goal.
