Whether you control nature or nature controls you, the desire for life and improvisation are the key factors for human survival in adverse and unpredictable conditions.

This is the main message of the book, which humbles us to see things in the outdoors as they are, when we embark on activities such as hiking, surfing and kayaking, hunting and fishing, riding a motorcycle, paragliding, or venturing into the wild, which in the end - if not respected - can consume us and never spit us out.

The content of the book is based on the education and survival techniques of the SAS (Special Air Service), the most elite unit in the world, which commands the respect and awe of all.
It covers every survival situation on any terrain on earth. It also covers the necessary equipment included in a survival kit, as well as how to use them.

It highlights the unlimited potential of human capabilities, while emphasizing that natural and weather phenomena are periodic, unpredictable, and unbeatable.
Authoritative, comprehensive, and user-friendly, it is by far the best survival manual ever written. It teaches us how to survive.
