<DIV><b>From the author of <i>Iron &amp; Silk</i></b><b> comes a moving memoir of love and family, loss and spiritual yearning<BR><BR></b><DIV>Anxiety has always been part of Mark Salzman&rsquo;s life: He was born into a family as nervous as rabbits, people with extra angst coded into their genes. As a young man he found solace through martial arts, meditation, tai chi, and rigorous writing schedules, but as he approaches midlife, he confronts a year of catastrophe. First, Salzman suffers a crippling case of writer&rsquo;s block; then a sudden family tragedy throws his life into chaos. Overwhelmed by terrifying panic attacks, the author begins a search for equanimity that ultimately leads to an epiphany from a most unexpected source.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV><i>The Man in the Empty Boat </i>is a witty and touching account of a skeptic&rsquo;s spiritual quest, a story of one man&rsquo;s journey to find peace as a father, a writer, and an individual.</div><DIV></div></div>
