"The first edition of this book was a landmark publication in presenting a cognitive-behavioural perspective on resilience with Michael Neenan's characteristic perceptiveness and clarity. The second edition is even better and contains topical new material on stoicism, positive psychology and the use of central personal metaphors. An important update"
