Histoire
"I had never planned to become a savanna baboon when I grew up; instead, I had always assumed I would become a mountain gorilla," writes Robert Sapolsky in this witty and riveting chronicle of a scientist's coming-of-age in remote Africa. An exhilarating account of Sapolsky's twenty-one-year study of a troop of rambunctious baboons in Kenya, A Primate's Memoir interweaves serious scientific observations with wry commentary about the challenges and pleasures of living in the wilds of the Serengeti-for man and beast alike.

Histoire
From the celebrated neurobiologist and primatologist, a landmark, genre-defining examination of human behavior, both good and bad, and an answer to the question: Why do we do the things we do? Sapolsky's storytelling concept is delightful but it also has a powerful intrinsic logic: He starts by looking at the factors that bear on a person's reaction in the precise moment a behavior occurs, and then hops back in time from there, in stages, ultimately ending up at the deep history of our species and its evolutionary legacy.

Histoire
In this delightful, acclaimed bestseller, one of the world’s leading cognitive scientists tackles the workings of the human mind. What makes us rational—and why are we so often irrational? How do we see in three dimensions? What makes us happy, afraid, angry, disgusted, or sexually aroused? Why do we fall in love? And how do we grapple with the imponderables of morality, religion, and consciousness?

Histoire
Understanding our humanity - the essence of who we are - is one of the deepest mysteries and biggest challenges in modern science. Why do we have bad moods? Why are we capable of having such strange dreams? How can metaphors in our language hold such sway on our actions? As we learn more about the mechanisms of human behavior through evolutionary biology, neuroscience, anthropology, and other related fields, we're discovering just how intriguing the human species is.

Richard Dawkins' brilliant reformulation of the theory of natural selection has the rare distinction of having provoked as much excitement and interest outside the scientific community as within it. His theories have helped change the whole nature of the study of social biology, and have forced thousands to rethink their beliefs about life.

Histoire
Faced with the ceaseless stream of news about war, crime, and terrorism, one could easily think we live in the most violent age ever seen. Yet as New York Times bestselling author Steven Pinker shows in this startling and engaging new work, just the opposite is true: violence has been diminishing for millennia and we may be living in the most peaceful time in our species's existence.

Description
Now in a third edition, Robert M. Sapolsky's acclaimed and successful Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers features new chapters on how stress affects sleep and addiction, as well as new insights into anxiety and personality disorder and the impact of spirituality on managing stress.
As Sapolsky explains, most of us do not lie awake at night worrying about whether we have leprosy or malaria. Instead, the diseases we fear-and the ones that plague us now-are illnesses brought on by the slow accumulation of damage, such as heart disease and cancer. When we worry or experience stress, our body turns on the same physiological responses that an animal's does, but we do not resolve conflict in the same way-through fighting or fleeing. Over time, this activation of a stress response makes us literally sick. Combining cutting-edge research with a healthy dose of good humor and practical advice, Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers explains how prolonged stress causes or intensifies a range of physical and mental afflictions, including depression, ulcers, colitis, heart disease, and more. It also provides essential guidance to controlling our stress responses. This new edition promises to be the most comprehensive and engaging one yet.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Amazing content but...
This is a great book but the choice of narrator was unfortunate. His voice inflections are too great. When he brings his voice down low, it is sometimes too much of a whisper and is impossible to hear even on replay. Frustrating and, ironically, stress inducing.

Immensely enjoyable listen .
Great overview of stress from both scientific and social and for that matter even spiritual considerations. Much better than I expected it to be with the title, which is appropriate but let me to underestimate the quality of the continent. Great meter as well. Easy to see why it’s in its third edition. Read it but don’t stress over it!

Extraordinary book
This is an extraordinary book. Of course it goes in detail about the physiological mechanisms of stress and the damage it can create on one's health. But mostly this is a book about how to live well. Professor Sapolsky is a brilliant scientist and perhaps the best lecturer on earth, he explains in great detail complex concepts while recapturing one's interest. His style is dynamic, incredibly funny, but most of all compassionate.

A Definite Re-Read
Found I was constantly back tracking to various chapters when they were referenced which re covered much more depth to said chapter. This was very useful and removed misunderstood first read superficial understanding. I commend the author on this presentation of a must read book. Introverted readers will totally enjoy the thought patterns, extroverts not so much.

fantastic book, terrible narrator
this was a great book. just like sapolsky's other works, it was informative, thoughtful, intriguing, and relevant.
my only complaint is that the narrator's voice isn't just a bit annoying in general, but he constantly moves back and forth between a whisper and shout- talking. I think he was trying to sound interesting and dynamic but he'll do it in almost every sentence. sometimes you can barely hear him so you'll turn up the volume, and then 2 seconds later you're scrambling to turn it down because he's shouting again.
pick your narrators more studiously audible!
