Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers by Robert M. Sapolsky

3.0

Sapolsky's book teeters on a self-help category of "stress management" books and it's fine. Managing and controlling the stress in one's life is important and the book explains in depth how the anatomy of a human works to counter stress and the effects of it on the body in the long run. However, there's another book that I found more interesting (and entertaining) that speaks about similar anatomical responses in depth and puts it in a context that made more sense to me - "The Hour Between the Dog and the Wolf", by John Coates.

If you do not want to get into the intricacies of neuro-anatomy then this book is fine. If you want a more intense reading on the subject, I'd suggest the book above.
