Total copies: 1
In 2015 Sheryl Sandberg's husband, Dave Goldberg, died suddenly at the age of forty-eight. Sandberg and her two young children were devastated, and she was certain that their lives would never have real joy or meaning again. Just weeks later, Sandberg was talking with a friend about the first father-child activity without a father. They came up with a plan for someone to fill in. 'But I want Dave,' she cried. Her friend put his arm around her and said, 'Option A is not available. So let's just kick the shit out of Option B.' Everyone experiences some form of Option B. We all deal with loss: jobs lost, loves lost, lives lost. The question is not whether these things will happen but how we face them when they do. Thoughtful, honest, revealing, and warm, 'Option B' weaves Sandberg's experiences coping with adversity with new findings from Adam Grant and other social scientists.
