How to Survive Against the Odds

Longtime GP contributor Sean Evans served as the ghostwriter behind this epic tome, which is based on the hit Wondery podcast Against the Odds. As Evans tells us: “The book combines tales of real-life survival in crazy scenarios alongside medical experts breaking down the physiological elements happening within our bodies when we’re fighting for our lives.” Lost in the jungle? Caught up in an avalanche? Tangling with a shark? Each chapter provides not only inspiration but expert knowledge that could save your life.
