Sane New World: a User's Guide to the Normal-crazy Mind Ruby Wax

The #1bestseller that presents a funny, honest, and engaging look at the craziness of modern life, explaining why we?re all just a little bit out of our minds.

In Sane New World, Ruby Wax - comedian, writer and mental health advocate - shows us just how our minds can send us mad as our internal critics play on a permanent loop tape ‘Don?t do that.. why you... you didn?t... should have... but you didn?t...?. Ruby knows those voices well. She has been on a tough but ultimately enlightening journey that has taken her from battling depression to achieving a Masters Degree from Oxford University in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy.

In Sane New World, Ruby helps us all understand why we sabotage our sanity, how our brains work and how we can rewire our thinking – often through simple mindfulness techniques - to find calm in a frenetic world.
