Summary:
"Anxiety disorders are our most prevalent psychiatric problem, affecting about forty million adults in the United States. Joseph LeDoux, whose NYU lab has been at the forefront of research, explains these disorders, their origins, and discoveries that can restore sufferers to normalcy. LeDoux believes we've been thinking about fear and anxiety in the wrong way. These are not built-in responses waiting to be triggered by perceived danger, but experiences that we assemble cognitively. Treatment must address both their conscious manifestations and underlying non-conscious processes. While knowledge about how the brain works will help us discover new drugs, LeDoux argues that the greatest breakthroughs may come from using brain research to help reshape psychotherapy. This book explains the science behind fear and anxiety disorders."--Provided by publisher.
