It can genuinely help people live better and more fulfilling lives. Author Drew Millard writes from experience: When a doctor prescribed exercise to help with depression, golf gave him the tools to recenter himself. For him, “sucking at golf was a calling,” one that helped him find a sense of balance and rhythm—both on the course and in his own mind.Brimming with personality, accessibility, and a freewheeling spirit, How Golf Can Save Your Life is a celebration of the sport and an examination of all it offers: the pleasures, benefits, personal growth, and friendships, as well as an appreciation for the land, ourselves, and our time. This book will cause you to fall in love with golf, whether for the first time or all over again.
Now in paperback, a “smart, insightful, funny, moving” (Shea Serrano) exploration of golf, an often-misunderstood game, and the valuable roles it can play in our lives Golf saved Drew Millard’s life, and he wants it to save yours, too. Drew Millard loves golf. We’re talking climbing-a-mountain, jumping-over-the-moon, standing-outside-golf’s-window-holding-a-boom-box levels of love. As a kid, he’d enjoyed the game, but after college, his clubs had been gathering dust in his parents’ basement. And then a bout with depression led him back home to haul them out of the unfinished storage area under the stairs. It was what the doctor had ordered. In addition to medication and therapy, Drew needed to exercise. Exercise was not something he did. But golf? Sure, why not? As Drew fumbled his way through his first round in years, he discovered that sucking at golf was his new calling, one that helped him find a sense of balance and rhythm—both on the course and in his own mind. Drew’s deep emotional connection to the game inspired him to write this book, and his passion is infectious. Combining great storytelling with fascinating historical tidbits and moving personal insights, he writes about everything from how golf taught him to be a better listener, son, and friend, to how to slow down, appreciate what he has, and keep fighting the good fight. Along the way, he demystifies the customs, history, and rules of the game. Brimming with personality, accessibility, and a freewheeling spirit, How Golf Can Save Your Life is a celebration of the sport and an examination of all it offers. Read it and fall in love with golf—for the first time or all over again.

This book analyzes the science behind pathological lying and offers important lessons for research and clinical practice. Curtis and Hart expertly synthesize and unify historical and contemporary writings and research on pathological lying, into a functional and cohesive resource for researchers and clinicians. By offering a succinct, theory-driven, and empirically corroborated account of this disorder, the authors aim to provide clinicians with the tools they need to more accurately identify and effectively treat patients. For a hundred years, research on pathological lying has been fragmented and diffuse as a result, the disorder has been called by different names and characterized in innumerable ways, with no formal definition or diagnosis. Recently, there has been a re-emergence of research examining pathological lying, which has helped establish research markers, categorical distinctions, assessment profiles, and clinical parameters.
