'Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges presents distilled lessons from three pioneers of the study of human resilience and psychological traumatization. Its messages are simple, profound, and easy to integrate into one's personal coping style. The third edition of this outstanding book is expanded and updated. It is also a wonderful memorial to one of its authors, Steven Southwick, M.D. He was a beloved and respected figure in the world of stress research, who died as the book was finalized.' John Krystal, M.D., Chair of Psychiatry at Yale School of Medicine, 'Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges encapsulates beautifully the literature on the psychological, biological, and neuroscientific perspectives on stress and the individual's response to it. Written by accomplished clinical investigators, this edition highlights and integrates what we know about resilience, and what we still need to know in order to enhance what we clinicians offer those exposed to unimaginable adversity. This book belongs in the library of every clinician, investigator, and teacher committed to understanding what paths one might take when traumatic events occur.' Terence M. Keane, Ph.D., National Center for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder's Behavioral Science Division, Boston University Chobanian, Avedisian School of Medicine, 'The Resilience Book is an extraordinary manual that combines theory and practice, biology psychology, spirituality, social sciences to offer the complete science and knowledge of not just survival in times of suffering and tragedy but learning to thrive and find higher purpose. Our brains are created by genes but sculpted by experiences. This book covers both the science of epigenetics and neuroplasticity to show that our biological organism can be redesigned for joy and optimal integration of body mind and spirit.' Deepak Chopra, MD FACP FRCP, 'This superb 3rd edition has everything. It is chock full of graphic anecdotes about people who successfully overcame overwhelming challenges, provides a comprehensive explication of the 10 key elements of resilience and describes the latest behavioral and neuroscientific research underlying each of these elements. It also provides very practical and doable tips that enable each reader to practice resilience and thereby enrich their own lives. What makes this book so special is that it succeeds at presenting a huge amount of information in an engrossing conversational style accessible to all readers. The authors even share some very personal experiences to illustrate important points. This extraordinary volume ends with a moving tribute to the late Steve Southwick for whom this book is the capstone to a remarkable career.' Matthew J. Friedman, M.D., Ph.D., Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry, Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth; Emeritus Executive Director, National Center for PTSD, Emeritus Director, National PTSD Brain Bank, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairsal PTSD Brain Bank, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairsal PTSD Brain Bank, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairsal PTSD Brain Bank, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, 'To paraphrase the bumper sticker "stuff happens" and it is how we respond to adversity that matters. Steven Southwick, Dennis Charney and Jonathan DePierro show us how, provide an expert's guide to the science, and offer practical advice for navigating life's challenges. In this deeply personal book, replete with juicy and often harrowing details of extraordinary hardships faced by both themselves and others they know, they provide living examples that will inspire. Resilience is a beautiful book that will benefit everyone.' Richard J. Davidson, Ph.D., author of the New York Times bestseller The Emotional Life of Your Brain, 'The Resilience book is an extraordinary manual that combines theory and practice, biology psychology, spirituality, social sciences to offer the complete science and knowledge of not just survival in times of suffering and tragedy but learning to thrive and find higher purpose. Our brains are created by genes but sculpted by experiences. This book covers both the science of epigenetics and neuroplasticity to show that our biological organism can be redesigned for joy and optimal integration of body, mind and spirit.' Deepak Chopra, M.D., FACP, FRCP, 'There is no resilience without adversity. Unfortunately, we live in a dangerous world. This book, written by world leaders on the science of resilience, is a must read for everyone. Certainly professionals who help others through stressful or traumatic experiences would profit from the knowledge shared, but every single person will learn how to manage challenges better. The authors include very easy-to-read clear suggestions backed by decades of neuroscience research and from the stories of multitudes of resilient survivors. Every clinician from novices to experienced clinicians has something to learn from this gem. The lessons in this book are what we should teach our children.'

This book reminds us that resilience is an equal and opposite force.
