Die Angst, Dein bester Freund

"Thanks to fear, I'm still alive." Can fear, this paralyzing feeling, be a positive emotion? For extreme climber Alexander Huber, it is a vital companion. In his highly topical, fully updated bestseller, he describes how it drives, protects and guides him on his tours. He tells how she almost took away his mountaineering when she became a burden, and vividly conveys what one can learn from it even in the valley. That you don't have to be an extreme athlete to get out of a thought spiral. And that it is worth taking risks in life and allying oneself with fear.With new contributions by mountain guide and psychologist Jan Mersch on dealing with fear and crises in mountaineering.
