Why is it that some people react to seemingly trivial emotional
upset - like failing an unimportant exam - with distress, while
others power through life-changing tragedies showing barely any
emotional upset whatsoever? How do some people shine brilliantly at
public speaking when others stumble with their words and seem on
the verge of an anxiety attack? Why do some people sink into
all-consuming depression when life has dealt them a poor hand,
while in others it merely increases their resilience? The
difference between too much pressure and too little can result in
either debilitating stress or enduring demotivation in extreme
situations. However, the right level of challenge and stress can
help people to flourish and achieve more than they ever thought
possible. In The Stress Test, clinical psychologist and cognitive
neuroscientist Professor Ian Robertson, armed with over four
decades of research, reveals how we can shape our brain's response
to pressure and answers the question: can stress ever be a good
thing? The Stress Test is a revelatory study of how and why we
react to pressure in the way we do, with real practical benefit to
how we live.
