I am just surprised the book doesn't say fear is random ;-)

>Jos, you always have interesting reading material. In light of 9/11 and the current state of the economy, this topic is very apropos. I might want to think about adding this to my current Amazon list. =0)

>>This is a fascinating read and provides an excellent insight into the world of fear; why we fear what we do, the mental processes driving our fears, the creation and marketing of fear, and how we may develop techniques to stop being afraid of the wrong things and start thinking clearly about the serious issues. It is a look at the science of behavioural economics as applied to fear.
