Nerve

Really wanted to like this. The premise was great - how we respond and react to fear. However what I read was what I can only assume is a miserable woman's life story with just a sprinkling of actual science. The author is scared, nervous, anxious about everything it seems. Must be a miserable way to live. When she actually gets into the science it's fine but the “I worried about this” and that oh no, lost her mom when she was a grown woman and acts like it was the end of the world, I knew not to expect too much. I think in the old days she would have been referred to as having a weak disposition. She needs some better friends who tell her to suck it up buttercup and not let her continually wallow in a fear of everything all the time.
