I thought it interesting, that's why putting this info here
There are some tests done, where they showed if one can generate his/her adrenaline, he/she can be more masculine powerful. Adrenaline is a chemical (actually a hormone) produced by the two adrenal glands, which are located on top of the kidneys (ad - renal, on - kidney). These glands secrete adrenaline directly into the blood stream when people are exposed to something that they see as potentially dangerous.

Some interesting books
some books to go through once, or if you have time ...
Globalization and Its Enemies, by Daniel Cohen, just published by the MIT Press., is a blessedly short but very interesting exploration of the issues of globalization. His analysis is terrific; historical, sensible, and he is neither a cheer-leader nor gloom-sayer. A short and excellent introduction to the whole concept by someone who knows whereof he speaks.
A much weightier tome is The Wealth of Networks: How Social Production Transforms Markets and Freedoms, by Yochai Benkler and published this month by Yale University Press. Benkler is a law professor at Yale, and this book is a very interesting and profound analysis on how the new, social, and technological production of knowledge has legal and philosophical implications that have yet to be addressed. Benkler has some great discussions here on how wealth is being created anew, and what it means not just for the law, but for economics and business in general. The first 100 pages or so were the most interesting on the subject of knowledge and wealth creation.
