People become statues in an emergency and don't think it can happen to them. This book proves bad things can happen to good people and the interviews with survivors are spectacular.
I have learned how to fly safely and what to do if I get lost in the woods.
I was amazed at how wearing the right pair of shoes can change outcomes.
You will learn 10 ways to be resilient.
Fascinating topics are the smell of fear, mind triumphing over body and will to live studies.
I've always thought what you named your child was the most important decision in your life. He cites a fascinating study on monograms and whether they are a source of pride or self esteem or suicide and accidents.
This book is an absolute must; you won't be able to stop talking to others about it.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading the miraculous stories of survival - couldn't put the book down! Learn the secrets of survival - a book everyone should read - even if you learn only one new thing, you'll come away with one more chance of becoming a survivor.
How important is optimism?
I have purchased seven additional books for family - as I want them to understand the mental aspects of surviving, including becoming more aware of their surroundings.
Will you survive in a crisis? Discover your survivor personality when you take the Survivor IQ test. An added bonus is the Survivors Club website with more survivor stories.

I can't wait to see this book featured on Oprah. I have often wonder way some people live through life's most trying moments. After living through two cancer treatments I have often wonder why I lived through a time where I thought it was going to kill me. "The Survivors Club" was an insightful look into why people survive life's unforeseen happenings. It has giving me a better understanding of faith, science, and most important to me personal strength.

I read the book in a very short period of time. It is very well-written and very informative. It gives a thorough insight in the psychology of any human being, be it a survivor or not. It will help anyone understand his strenght and weakness and thereby try to improve his/her life.
The test at the end of the book is very helpful. Every one should take it. For me, it turned out that I am a believer. I am and was a believer all my life but this test came to assure me about my style and approach in life.
Awesome book March 30, 2009

The Survivor's Club is fun and exciting read, with a message. Keeping your eyes peeled and being ready is half the battle. I even used some of the principles of this book to be smart and to keep safe after an accident--right in line with my survivor profile. This book, and the website and the quiz are really great, and truly fascinating. Thanks for doing this, Ben!!!
