Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers
Author: Robert M. Sapolsky
Publisher: Holt Paperbacks
ISBN: 1429935650
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 559
Book Description
Renowned primatologist Robert Sapolsky offers a completely revised and updated edition of his most popular work, with over 225,000 copies in print 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.

The Zebra way can help salespeople identify the perfect prospects for their companies--their Zebras--and develop a sales process that will help them close deals 90 percent of the time. The Zebra method of selling will: Increase close rates; Shorten sales cycles; Increase average deal size; Reduce discounting and increase margins; Make better use of scarce resources; Make customers happy, creating a stable of great references. Jeff and Chad Koser don't just offer theories and concepts. They give readers specific tools, models, and spreadsheets they can customise to make the Zebra way the best way for their companies to do business.

Zebra Stripes
Author: Timothy M. Caro
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022641101X
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
Why do zebras have stripes? Popular explanations range from camouflage to confusion of predators, social facilitation, and even temperature regulation. It is a challenge to test these proposals on large animals living in the wild, but using a combination of careful observations, simple field experiments, comparative information, and logic, Caro concludes that black-and-white stripes are an adaptation to thwart biting fly attack.
