Fantastic
Gonzales' writes about what is in our species that makes us survivors, and why people do what they do in certain situations. His description of the power of emotion over reason is compelling. His fluid wrighting makes this a fast read. Who lives, who dies, and why.
Must Read
This book is a must read for anyone in extreme sports. I have a paperback copy of the book and now bought an e-book to study, highlight, and research. Well written and easy to read. There is a perfect balance of stories and bio-research. This will be my forth time through the book.
