A searing new look at the culture of panic which is endemic in societies that have 'never had it so good'. Every day, the press warns us of some new calamity that will threaten our lives, but these stories are a mix of supposedly scientific information and journalistic hype. This is a feel-good book that will equip the reader to approach the scares of today without panic, but with rational level headedness. There will be masses of publicity on publication.
