Deep Survival: Who Lives, Who Dies, and Why
reviewed on + 13 more book reviews
Helpful Score: 3


This book explores the psychology of survival. It is not a scientific study of survival, it's not a how-to manual, but an analysis of specific true survival stories. Most of the book is in narrative form, reflections on the author's first hand accounts of survival and retellings of other first hand accounts. The goal of this book is not so much to outline a survival method, but to explore and cultivate the survivor mind.
