Book Description
Surgeon, VP of The Explorer's Club, veteran of Everest climbs (such as the one documented in INTO THIN AIR, on which he was attending physician). NASA consultant and the world's foremost extreme doctor, Ken Kamler knows what happens when bodies are pushed to their limits and beyond. He has hung from ice crevasses and pushed himself into pitch-black underwater caves, and seen who survived and who didn't. There are those who can cut off their arms to save their lives and those who cannot.
This captivating book takes readers into six environments: underwater, water surface, jungle, desert, high altitude and outer space. Kamler explores the body's reactions to heat, cold, pressure, starvation and exhaustion and reveals its miraculous survival strategies. Here is a scientific nail-biter that takes readers where no 'reality' television show who dare to go, and proves in intimate, harrowing and unforgettable detail what surival really means.
