Ray Mears has travelled the world to see how native people manage to live on just what nature provides. What's always frustrated him is not knowing how our own ancestors fed themselves ï ½ & what we could learn about our own diet. We know they were hunter-gatherers, but no-one has been able to tell what they ate day to day. How did they find their calories, week in week out throughout the year? What were their staple foods? Where did they get their vitamins? How did they ensure their bodies received enough variety? In this book & the BBC TV series it inspired, he travels back ten thousand years to a time before farming to learn how our ancestors found, prepared & cooked their food. This extraordinary journey reveals many new possibilities ï ½ many of the same food sources are still there for us if only we know where to look.

As far back as stories go, pioneers have reached for the skies. In the last two hundred years, they have mastered the air & made the modern world possible. Today they are bringing outer space within our reach. They're inventors & toymakers, amateurs & adventurers, visionaries, dreamers &, yes, crackpots. Some have called them irresponsible, even dangerous. But I have met many of them. I have worked with them, & funded them, & flown with them.
