Epidemic
In December 2013, a young boy in a tiny West African village contracted the deadly Ebola virus. The virus spread to his relatives, then to neighboring communities, then across international borders. The world's first urban Ebola outbreak quickly overwhelmed the global health system and threatened to kill millions. In an increasingly interconnected world in which everyone is one or two flights away from New York or London or Beijing, even a localized epidemic can become a pandemic. Ebola's spread through West Africa to Nigeria, the United Kingdom and the United States sounded global alarms that the next killer outbreak is right around the corner and that the world is woefully unprepared to combat a new deadly disease. From the poorest villages of rural West Africa to the Oval Office itself, this book tells the story of a deadly virus that spun wildly out of control and reveals the truth about how close the world came to a catastrophic global pandemic.

Summary of Reid Wilson's Stopping the Noise in Your Head
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Worry is a useful tool when it helps us solve our problems. But when it becomes a bothersome noise in our heads, we need to kick it to the curb. #2 I have spent most of my career working with anxious clients. When people ask what drew me to this field, I answer, It takes one to treat one. I experience a combination of guilt and worry when I don’t set aside time to work on a project, and I constantly worry that I’m not being productive enough. #3 Worry is meant to be an initial response to a problem, not the problem itself. If we don’t place our worries within the problem-solving process, they will hurt us emotionally. #4 Worry can serve an essential function by helping us solve legitimate problems, but it can also be debilitating when it gets in the way of our performance. We will look at when anxious worrying disrupts us instead of helping us.
