About the book: 2014 / We cannot control everything that happens to us. But we have the power to face the challenges that life presents to us. We can turn poison into medicine, and defeat into victory, if we have an invincible mind - the willingness to persevere through obstacles, survive in difficult conditions and solve life's problems. Alex Lickerman, a practicing physician and prolific writer, offers several principles that will help you become more resilient and stronger, and illustrates them with the stories of their patients who, thanks to them, managed to cope with suffering: dismissal, incurable illness, excess weight, drug addiction, rejection, loss of loved ones, panic and other adversities. Published in Russian for the first time.
