Beschreibung

A traumatic or near-death experience can change every aspect of the survivor's being. It can erase the body's learned adaptations, and in some cases, those who live through such a shock suffer more in the aftermath than they did during the actual crisis. In all cases, they must work hard to reinvent themselves. Combining harrowing tales of survival with lucid explanations of the science behind the body's reactions to trauma, Surviving Survival offers a valuable and "intriguing argument about the adaptability of the human spirit" (National Geographic Traveler).
