nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Decompile Your Mind: An Engineer's Guide to Thoughts and Emotions is a mental-wellness book tailored especially for engineers (and anyone who identifies as a logical thinker). Drawing on their clinical expertise and combined 10 years of working with engineering students, authors and licensed therapists Audrey Gilfillan and Alison West translate psychological concepts into a framework that resonates with the analytical mind. You won't find abstract or vague ideas in this book. Instead, Gilfillan and West use visual models, charts, metaphors, engineering-specific examples, and structured reasoning to help readers build skills to manage everyday challenges. Ultimately, readers learn to manage distressing thoughts and emotions in a way that makes sense to them.The title uses a software engineering metaphor: just as engineers decompile code to see its structure and logic, readers learn to reverse-engineer their thought patterns and emotional responses in order to understand what's really going on beneath the surface. In the first two sections, the 'Emotion Decompiler' and 'Thought Decompiler' models provide a streamlined approach to this process--giving readers the clarity and confidence to step outside of their automatic responses and instead cope with overthinking and distressing emotions in a systematic, values-oriented way. The third and final section of the book covers themes that are relevant in engineering spaces: perfectionism, uncertainty, connection, and the imposter phenomenon. Readers are provided an opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills gained in the previous sections to their own experiences with each of these topics. Whether you've been to therapy before or you're new to learning about mental health, Decompile Your Mind's comprehensive, accessible approach is valuable for all levels of familiarity.…

No one enters an engineering profession expecting it to be easy. But even after mastering topics like structural mechanics and thermodynamics, sometimes an even more daunting set of tasks remains: coping with the stress and pressures inherent to the profession while striving for the kind of mental wellness that so often eludes our complex and mysterious human brains.
If your mind were simply a sophisticated computer program, you might imagine hardwiring it into a software decompiler, in an effort to get to know it better; reverse-engineering the code to explore how it works, what its limitations are, and why its behavior can sometimes surprise you. In Decompile Your Mind: An Engineer’s Guide to Thoughts and Emotions, clinical therapists Alison West and Audrey Gilfillan provide this same experience, without the costly neural interface. Drawing on cutting-edge psychological research and their years of experience working with engineers, the authors reveal the inner workings of the mind and challenge you to learn from what you find beneath the surface of your consciousness.
What does it mean when an unwanted thought pops into your head? Is rational, logical thinking always the best approach to dealing with a difficult situation? And why do some of us struggle so much with self-doubt or procrastination? This indispensable book explores these questions and many, many more through vignettes, metaphors, systematic models, and exercises, all tailored to the language and experiences of anyone who identifies as an engineer or an engineering student. The result is a set of comprehensive self-assessments and mental wellness tools, custom-built for the logical thinker.
