"This book represents a major achievement by providing a simple, straightforward explanation of a rather complicated area in mental health. Dr. Attwell manages to describe and explain the complex phenomenon of anxiety in a way that appeals to both experts in the field and the general public. It relies on a depth and breadth of knowledge never before provided to the public at large."--Samuel Herschkowitz, Clinical Professor and Director, The NYU Psychoanalytic Institute.
