Book Description	Using the Brain to Understand and Treat Fear and Anxiety
Editorial Review	Every age believes itself to be the age of anxiety, as Auden's famous poem first put it. But in his new book, Anxious, the neuroscientist and writer Joseph LeDoux suggests that that has never been a stronger claim to make than it is now . . . . If this is the age of anxiety, LeDoux is our Lewis and our Clark: It was LeDoux who laid down the first map of what is called the brain's 'fear circuit, ' the regions--centered on the amygdala and its adjacent structures--that together give rise to our ability to respond to threats and danger. But with his new book, he wants to redraw that map.
About the Author	Joseph LeDoux is the Henry and Lucy Moses Professor of Science at New York University, where he is a member of the Center for Neural Science and the Department of Psychology. He directs the Emotional Brain Institute at New York University and at the Nathan Kline Institute, and is the author of Synaptic Self and The Emotional Brain.
