W.I.N. Newsletter Special - This Week's Book Recommendation

From Booklist
According to Sherwood, two questions are central to this book. What
does it really take to survive a catastrophic event and what kind
of survivor are you? You might be surprised at the answers. While
there are tactics and strategies to surviving life tragedies,
unforeseen accidents, and other catastrophes, many of these are
instinctive (some, like exhibiting transitory superhuman strength,
are manifested physiologically, without conscious planning). Some
of us, Sherwood explains, are better survivors than others--in
prisoner-of-war camps, for example, the people most likely to
collapse are the eternal optimists who believe rescue is imminent
and fail to come to terms with the possibility of long-term
imprisonment. The book is a useful, insightful exploration of the
nature of survival, the resilience of the human mind and body, and
the ways in which we can all use our natural gifts to maximize our
chances of coming through catastrophic situations. --David Pitt
