    摘要註: "The pace of modern life is accelerating. To keep up, we must keep on moving and adapting - constantly striving forgreater happiness and success. Or so we are told. But the demands of life in the fast lane come at a price: stress, fatigue and depression are at an all-time high while our social interactions have become increasingly self-serving and opportunistic. How can we resist today's obsession with introspection and self-improvement? In this witty andbestselling book, Danish philosopher and psychologist Svend Brinkmann argues that we must not be afraid to reject the self-help mantra and "stand firm". The secret to a happier life lies not in finding your inner-self but in coming to terms with yourself in order to co-exist peacefully with others. By encouraging us to stand firm and get a foothold in life, this insightful anti-self-helpguide offers a sobering and realistic alternative to life-coaching, positive thinking and the need always to say?yes!?"--Provided by publisher
