However, when reading this book, the lack of editing or transition to the Kindle edition was terrible!! Did anyone look at the book before it was published? Many of the chapters, talking about days are missing the dashsuch as days 511 instead of 5-11. And of all the books I've read since coming out, this was probably my favorite. Easy, clear instructions.. The information and insight is more than I ever expected!Great job with this Dr. I like the easy to follow recipes, the explanations of the most common methods and purposes for usage, and cautionary statements. I especially like the supercharged action of the Oliver Hardy movie sequence stills. It gave me a few new ideas. Abundant helpful photos, and the best "bird's eye" views of the rooms. By the way, if Jaffe and Jung wanted him to appear "greater" than he actually was, then they would have mentioned these individuals and how virtually all were impressed with his sense of humor, highly impressive memory and intelligence, cordial and friendly nature, "down-to earthness", etc. Once again, what impressed me most about this book was the mostly balanced attitude HaymaAnd she’s kept careful notes on what triggers these responses and why.Fear is a universal human experience, but do we really understand it? If we’re so terrified of monsters and serial killers, why do we flock to the theaters to see them? Why do people avoid thinking about death, but jump out of planes and swim with sharks? For Kerr, there was only one way to find out.In this eye-opening, adventurous book, she takes us on a tour of the world’s scariest experiences: into an abandoned prison long after dark, hanging by a cord from the highest tower in the Western hemisphere, and deep into Japan’s mysterious suicide forest.” She even goes on a ghost hunt with a group of paranormal adventurers. Along the way, Kerr shows us the surprising science from the newest studies of feShe mixes enough self-awareness and insight with her tales of fright to make the book campfire-worthy. Roller coasters, haunted houses, heights, abandoned prisons, ghosts (well, maybe), even death she confronts them with the relentlessness of a zombie Terminator. Scream may not haunt you outright, but it stays with you, mainly by showing how the scariest place in the world is inside your own head.” Washington PostWhile describing her experiences, Kerr insightfully reviews the physical effects of feeling fear For people who wonder why they like to be scared, these experiments offer some clues. For those afraid of being afraid, Kerr’s own enthusiasm gives them reasons to try it.” Publishers Weekly
