"Those who are already wise no longer love wisdom - whether they are gods or men.
Similarly, those whose own ignorance has made them bad, rotten, evil, do not strive for wisdom either. For no evil or ignorant person ever strives for wisdom.
What remains are those who suffer from ignorance, but still retain some sense and understanding. 
They are conscious of knowing what they don't know."

Socrates in Plato's Lysis 218b, fourth century BC

Synopsis

"Everyone needs a certain level of pressure in order to achieve things at work. But when we go beyond pressure, we start to experience stress which is negative, counter-productive and potentially disastrous. Yet stress, especially at work, is a subject that is often ignored because to recognise it can be interpreted as a sign of weakness. This book looks at the challenges facing people in today s fast-moving world where the issues encountered by people at all levels in organisations are unprecedented. It provides practical techniques to help people cope with a much misunderstood but potentially devastating and naturally occurring state: stress. It gives readers a clear understanding of one the most difficult subjects to define and ways to deal with a topic that is usually only recognised when the results are dramatic and potentially damaging."

"I think this is a really useful book, well structured and written in very clear English. It gives good, practical common-sense advice and its contents are applicable to people from all walks of life.
I particularly liked the chapters on Taking Control and Taking Action, along with the explanations of various specialists and their roles, as explained in Chapter 8.
There are many books written about this subject and this one is right up there with the best of them. I would have no hesitation in recommending it to any of my patients."

Dr Nicholas Bell, GP, Medical Doctor, UK 

 

"Anyone who has ever been, or is today, in a position of responsibility will find this book to be invaluable. Parents, managers, spouses, and everyone else on whom somebody relies will know what it means to feel pressure. Whether it's leading an organization through a financial crisis or responsibly balancing family with work, the lessons of this book strike a close and personal chord for those who regularly find themselves battling with so many competiting priorities.  This book enables the reader to establish sufficient awareness in order to understand the context of his/her stress and provides practical advice on how to deal with it in a more effective and liberating way. Presented in no-nonsense language, the practioners describe the influences which contribute to stress and pressure and highlight some of its severe implications if left unaddressed. If you're looking to take the initiative and improve the way you live in a world of increased pressure and subsequent stress, this book provides the tools and the roadmap to reach a calmer state of mind."
