This is an automatically translated description

We will tell you what is really behind sweaty palms, heart palpitations, dilated pupils or stupor from a sense of danger. Why do some people perform heroic deeds in critical situations, while others "break down"? What is the best thing to do when you meet a bear: fight or run away, what are the options in extreme conditions? Is there a difference in the actions of men and women under stress? Is there a useful stress? And what is the purpose of chronic stress and how can teenagers deal with it?

This book will also be an ideal tool for parents, teachers, and students to learn the science of stress. You will find many life stories, research, statistics and unique cases. The stories are conveniently divided into chapters, include inserts and of course funny illustrations from our favourite illustrator Marie-Ouwe Tremblay, who drew the most microbial book ever, Who Lives in You: Stories of the Microbes That Make You Home.
