Full Description


'"Into Thin Air" meets "The Road Less Traveled."' - Tim Cahill, author of "Jaguars Ripped My Flesh". Risk can both nurture the soul, Dr. Jeff Salz writes, and revitalize your life in ways you never imagined. Matching exhilarating, sometimes extreme, tales of perilous voyages and rugged travel with invaluable lessons about daily living, Salz identifies six ways to incorporate the spirit of adventure into everything you do. Sharing the insights of his fellow explorers, as well as inventors, artists, executives, and a former president, Dr. Salz guides readers on a journey of self-discovery that will help them enjoy the substance and accomplishments in their lives. Re-counting the stories of his expeditions to exotic locations all over the world, he reveals how each provides an essential lesson for living with integrity and imagination. Jeff Salz, PhD (San Diego, CA), is a cultural anthropologist, business consultant and motivational speaker, journalist, explorer, and mountaineer. Dr. Salz's adventures have been featured in special one-hour features with the Travel Channel, which reaches 50 million homes in the United States. He has also appeared on CBS' "The Early Show".
