Omg what utter bullshit. A book for macho guys who get scared, don't want to admit it, and want help without losing any manly creds. Leaves no room for common sense or if you're afraid for any reason other than an irrational phobia. The author details one anecdote about how he was working on a passenger boat, in poor conditions, in shark filled waters. The captain orders him to jump into the water because it will save time raising the anchor, and therefore the passengers won't be inconvenienced by a minor delay. Rather than be afraid of jumping into a situation where there is a realistic chance of getting attacked by a wild animal, the author jumps in because he wants to look tough in front of the other guys and not make the passengers wait a little while to do it the safe way. He doesn't deny this; he's proud of it! At a certain point, there's bravery, and then there's stupidity.
