Daniel Smith

For more than 40 million Americans like Daniel Smith, the symptoms of anxiety—sweaty palms, heart palpitations, an unstoppable assault of irrational fears—are everyday companions.  In Monkey Mind:  A Memoir of Anxiety (Simon & Schuster; $25.00) Smith articulates what it is like to live with anxiety, defanging the disease with humor, traveling through its demonic layers, and evocatively expressing its self-destructive absurdities and painful internal coherence. “A true treasure-trove of insight laced with humor and polished prose.” —Kirkus starred review.  Smith is the author of Muses, Madmen, and Prophets: Hearing Voices and the Borders of Sanity.
