The Thin Edge of Sanity: Nudging the Line of the Unthinkable

Mehr zum Buch

When something bad happens, many people will tell you "I would never do that." The truth is, every one of us will be given the option to do the unthinkable at least once in our lives. We will never know how we will react to that situation until we face it. It may be something entirely in our minds, or it may be a significant physical reaction. If we chose to stick our toe over the line once, it will be easier to to do it again, and go further, the next time something happens. This book explores both real and imagined situations where mental and/or physical stressors bring someone to the brink of doing something most people would consider insane. While the situations and stressors that bring someone to the brink varies with each person, the last chapter explores the real life events of the last couple of years and how the coordinated efforts of a few have changed the lives of millions of people.
