Now in a third edition, Robert M. Sapolsky's acclaimed and successful Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers features new chapters on how stress affects sleep and addiction, as well as new insights into anxiety and personality disorder and the impact of spirituality on managing stress. As Sapolsky explains, most of us do not lie awake at night worrying about whether we have leprosy or malaria. Instead, the diseases we fear - and the ones that plague us now - are illnesses brought on by the slow accumulation of damage, such as heart disease and cancer. When we worry or experience stress, our body turns on the same physiological responses that an animal's does, but we do not resolve conflict in the same way - through fighting or fleeing. Over time, this activation of a stress response makes us literally sick. Combining cutting-edge research with a healthy dose of good humour and practical advice, Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers explains how prolonged stress causes or intensifies a range of physical and mental afflictions, including depression, ulcers, colitis, heart disease, and more. It also provides essential guidance to controlling our stress responses. This new edition promises to be the most comprehensive and engaging one yet.

評分这本书在04年的当年卖的很好,是职场流行的书籍,不过好快即沉寂。 职场压力大嘛,都市生活压力大,其实,人人皆不易,人人有压力,有压力嘛,就可以读读看,也许是适合你的哦。 我记得李敖先生多次说过这样的话:哲学家(殷海光)得了胃癌死掉了,这是什么呀!等于是神父得了...
評分书写得很棒,少给了一星是因为整本书的格局一直在重复,前三分之一看得很舒服,等看完抑郁症之后就开始觉得疲劳,最后几章就草草看完了。虽然重复是记忆的基础,但是应该有更好的写法。 有趣,讲道理(三观正),有各种小故事,各种小细节,还信手拈来一些经典...

讀到第七章,發現裏麵講的東西還是有點過時。這本書應該歸類到醫學纔對。
评分幽默!唯一的缺點是解釋原理太多,實際應用太少
评分神作
评分作者的分析非常細緻,用詞也優美。
评分Very likely to remember "glucocorticoid" for the rest of my life.
