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!
