Dr. Wolfgang Linden’s new book, The Illusion of Control: A Practical Guide to Avoid Futile Struggles (Rowman & Littlefield Publishers $42.00) explores how people often overestimate their control over others while neglecting the power they hold over themselves. Backed by scientific evidence and real-life examples, the book teaches readers to reduce stress and improve life quality by abandoning futile attempts at control. It encourages a shift in focus towards self-control, providing psychological tools to manage personal issues like sleep, weight and mood. The book also offers strategies for navigating relationships and societal challenges with a realistic understanding of the limits of influence. 9781538183649
