Book summary
According to Laurence Gonzales, the average person's reaction to circumstances where death seems imminent, such as a plane crash in the Amazon jungle or abandonment in the Rocky Mountains, is to die. This is not surprising. What is surprising is that some people actually survive these situations and, since they are a very rare breed, these "lucky" few make for a very manageable study group. Gonzales analyzes some of the common traits and behaviors of survivors of various disasters, in order to ascertain similarities which might translate into a teachable technique for not dying. While documenting the thrilling escapades and escapes of adventurers around the world, Gonzales focuses on the psychology and instinct which kept them alive amidst peril that often claimed the lives of their peers and companions.
