Of Ultimate
Human Performance
£8.99
A razor-sharp analysis of how record-breaking exploits in extreme sport are redefining the limits of being human Right now more people are risking their lives for their sports then ever before in history As Thomas Pynchon once put it in Gravity's Rainbow 'it is not often that Death is told so clearly to f off' Over the past three decades the bounds of the possible in action & adventure sports
- from sky-diving to motocross to surfing & beyond
- have been pushed farther & faster A generation's worth of iconoclastic misfits have rewritten the rules of the feasible; not just raising the bar but obliterating it altogether Along the way they have become a force pushing evolution relentlessly onward In a thrilling narrative that draws on biology psychology & philosophy Steven Kotler asks why at the tail end of the 20th century & the early portion of the 21st are we seeing such a multi-sport assault on reality? Did we somehow slip through a wormhole to another universe where gravity is optional & common sense obsolete? & where
- if anywhere
- do our actual limits lie?
