~~~ Laurence Gonzales ~~~

Laurence Gonzales is the author of "Deep Survival" ...The stories his father, Federico Gonzales, told Laurence of his extraordinary experiences led to his extensive research that uncovered the puzzle of why some live overcoming great odds, and others die. Real stories of survival, the neuroscience and psychology that explains why and how, the author's own experiences, and the amazingly true stories of his father and his indomitable spirit and great attitude, have all culminated over 30 years into his latest book "Deep Survival".

A book of real adventure, beautifully written, that clearly explains why we react as we do... thinking and instinct, both necessary but each deadly used in the wrong moment. How is it that we often make such poor choices in moments of danger? Partly it is because we have grown up in an environment where we unlearn survival, and use the mechanism of survival where it is not appropriate. While the principles in it apply to any life challenge, it shows how we can re-train ourselves to be able to react quickly and intelligently in any emergency. Learn and understand the animal response, reason, emotion, humility, and humor ...and survive! "Deep Survival" has made a profound impression on wilderness travelers and extreme sport enthusiasts. It is being used by the head of training for the Navy SEALs, wildland firefighters, police, and others... but it is for everyone.

The major shift in science since Descartes. Creating the idea of ourselves as rational beings "I think therefor I am" - but listen to the news and see we are not rational beings. Today we have a highly acclaimed neuroscientist calling us "unconscious zombies"! The mammalian brain, limbic system, how dopamine and opiods influence our behavior, needing heightened reward is called addiction... all done outside the realm of consciousness. "It argues for living a well examined life."
