Written with obvious passion and care, and sufficiently covers a broad spectrum of issues in a relatively engaging manner. However, the obvious pre-occupation with neuroscience over psychology and the complete and utter ignorance of structural factors at play (outside of obligatory references to race and natural disasters) seriously detract from the clarity, cohesion, and completeness of the text.

A version of this book which bothered to discuss therapeutic methods at greater lengths and which deigned systems issues—such as climate anxiety and capitalist atomization—worthy of recognition would be a far more impactful and honest read.
