Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

What is fear? Where does it come from? What purpose does it serve? Why are some fears universal when others vary from person to person and from culture to culture? In this fascinating book, Pulitzer-prize nominated science writer Rush Dozier, Jr. takes us on a thrilling journey through the brain science and everyday reality of this most human emotion. Fears mold the most mundane aspects of our existence and the very structure of our societies, reflecting in terrorism, violence, secret police, and distrust of outsiders. Yet it is fear itself that simultaneously pushes us to mature and fulfill our deepest human potential.
