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 humor 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.

What didn’t you like about Peter Berkrot’s performance?

Exaggerated emphasis, stagey inflection. Berkot's rollar coaster reading is highly distracting, injects ambiguity as to the meaning of some sentences and ruins the enjoyment of the text. Half David Biencouli, half 1950's William Shatner-- NOT an appropriate voice for scientific material.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Not if Peter Berkot were narrating it. I've already purchased a documentary, based on Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers, and Sapolsky is a far better better, more engaging interpreter of his work than Berkot.

Any additional comments?

Unfortunately, this is a prime example of a wonderful book ruined by a bad reading.I had read this book years ago, love the author, had heard Sapolsk lecture in person, and was really looking forward to what I thought would be a fun review of great material. But Peter Berkot's reading of Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers wrecked my happy anticipation. Many scientific and historical authors make the rounds on TV talk shows or radio interview programs, giving their audience the opportunity to hear them read and/or discuss their manuscript in their own voice. Not all are scintillating lecturers, but they have an engaging enthusiasm for the material which sustains the audience, and which no grade C actor or professional reader ever manages to capture. Whether or not the author is "professional" in reading their material aloud, matters less than hearing the author's own intended inflection, emphasis and enthusiasm. A stagey reading by a professional reader, destroys the mood and introduces ambiguity, causing uncertainty as to the author's meaning in some cases.

Fabulous Book / LOUSY Reader

I enjoy the content, yet it’s next to impossible to understand while I’m driving, and I have a great fancy car stereo …. The dynamics of the narrator are all over the place, certain phrases and sentences extremely loud , others swallows and quiet… this could have been fixed by a decent audio engineer or a minimal process of mastering , but apparently nobody at audible QCed this book, I’m very disappointed in this level of unprofessionalism, never encountered anything similar in the around 50 other audible books I have purchased and listened too…

Good book, horrible production

Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.

the basic science at the beginning is fascinating and intrigued me. The book goes on to cherry pick studies that the author does not agree with, and his overall conclusion is that once you're an adult, you pretty much have no control over your stress response. His last chapter is a farce. His political and spiritual bias cause him to make childish statements or worse, throw out studies he does not like. If you are interested in basic stress physiology, the first half of the hook is worthwhile. Otherwise, skip this one.

overall ok but biased and not practical

Each chapter provides a good overview of the relevant physiological systems, so you're never lost. Also, it's balanced and not over-reaching (acknowledging that not every disease is due to stress), which i appreciated. Slightly annoyed by the narration, but otherwise a very good listen.

Informative and entertaining

I've been listening to Sapolsky's lectures and interviews for a while and still learned a great deal from this book. I've even changed up some of my habits in positive ways to avoid running into unncecessary stressors. Loved the overall message of the book which will shift your perspective on stress and stress relief. "We can prevent ulcers without having to give ulcers" is one line from the book but I feel it sums it up pretty well.

Fantastic intro to the human stress response

This audiobook is brilliant. It gives insights into stress, the causes of stress and the solutions to your stress. Everyone should listen and learn.

Brilliant, Listen and Learn

worth the listen if you want to know about stress and depression and how to cope with it.

great

Excellent book! The author’s ability to cover phd level neuroscience and biology expressed in layman’s terms is awesome. Some high tech, lots of humor and witty analogies. Sources of stress, medical and psychological reasons, and some coping skills. A solid wholesome book you’re grandmother would endorse (if she was a nerdy, bright and loved technical topics)

Sapolsky Is My Hero

While very conversational, this book is filled with many neuroscience concepts and constructs. All expertly explained but if you need to pause to digest it, take your time.

A Long But Interesting Read

Se ha producido un error. Vuelve a intentarlo dentro de unos minutos.

This book helped me to gain understanding of my conditioned responses to every day stresses and allowed me to put them into perspective.Although I continue to overreact and take on stresses that aren't mine, I now recognize them and am developing better strategies to reduce their effect on me. The book is insightful about how our physical body reacts to stress and though some may find the info too technical, I enjoyed it, as I am in the medical field and it makes perfect sense to me. I fully intend to listen again as it is a lot of information and at times can be overwhelming.

Great analogies
