4.05 AVERAGE

christospanayi's review against another edition

Made me think about stress, introduced interesting scientific findings, kinda stressed me a bit but mostly dazzled and confused me with the terminology and the science. It is definitely worth a read but I was not in a place to read thoroughly and so this was a skim reading for me. My effort was not nearly enough to warrant a rating or a credible review. This is an amazing work of scientific literature that can be accessible to all when in the mood for some commitment and finding out what's up with stress.

A very thorough book, covering stress from a lot of different angles.

Not sure if I struggled at times because of the content, or because of the audiobook narrator.

I really liked this book and learned SO much. I would love to be an expansion of the last chapter in his next edition.

I didn't finish reading this book. I already figured out that stress is bad for my health, so there wasn't too much more I wanted to read about that theory.
