Review of 'The Places That Scare You' on 'LibraryThing'

3 stars

This book introduces a large number of practices that seem potentially useful for coping with fear of things we can't control. But that's all it does - each chapter is a short, superficial description of a practice, very few of which I feel able to really engage with from just that description. I suppose this is more a case of just not being what I was looking for than a real flaw in the book.
