"In this timely and groundbreaking work, Joan Borysenko--a Harvard-trained medical scientist, psychologist, and renowned pioneer in stress and health--straddles psychology, biology, and soul in a completely fresh approach to burnout. Her deeply human (and often amusing) personal accounts of burnout and recovery help convey a clear understanding of the science behind helplessness, hopelessness, and empowerment. Plus, the rich wisdom of people who have gone from fried to revived--including many of Joan's vibrant community of nearly 5,000 Facebook friends--makes this powerful and practical book a must-read for our times"--Page 2 of cover.
