Nerve: Adventures in the Science of Fear by Eva Holland

4.0

A fascinating read by Canadian journalist Eva Holland. This is a mix of memoir and science (although skews more to the memoir genre) about Eva's immersive exploration of fear and recovery from fear/phobias. As someone with a lifelong phobia, I was really interested in learning about newer treatments. Eva's writing style is direct and easy to follow, and I finished this up in a couple of days! Would highly recommend for anyone interested in reflecting on their own fear, especially as it relates to diagnosed phobias.
