The Fear Project: What Our Most Primal Emotion Taught Me about Survival, Success, Surfing . . . and Love by Jaimal Yogis

2.0

This book was inconsistent. There were parts I thought were really fascinating, particularly the parts focused on meditation, neurobiology, and fear and anxiety as they relate to mental health and sports.

Everything else was superfluous to me. The author was very self-focused in writing this book and it was apparent; at times I felt like I was reading an autobiography. It was unclear how the subject material was directly related to fear. I'm sure it was tangentially (but really what can't be made relevant with enough word magic?).

So yeah. Could have done without so much autobiography. Also didn't need the bit about the sharks.
