We are a nation battered every day by stories about horrific calamities, tragic events, frightening statistics. Inevitably, our thoughts turn personal and we wonder if we have what it takes to get through when the worst is thrown our way.

While there are plenty of books about coping with adversity, it isn't until now, with The Survivors Club, that we discover the human factors that determine survival. It's a combination instruction manual and security blanket that blends compelling true stories with cutting-edge science to deliver some of the most important lessons we'll ever need to learn.

This audiobook will:

  • List the most important traits necessary for survival (fear is #1)
  • Identify the five types of survivors
  • Debunk myths (like only the strong survive), explore the frontiers of survival science (How much strain and punishment can a human body endure?), and introduce listeners to counterintuitive thinking (Ever heard of posttraumatic growth?).
  • Provide a Survivors Tool Kit, including an online test (at www.thesurvivorsclub.org/) that measures one's Survivor's Quotient

Each one of us eventually joins the club of millions who face life's inescapable tribulations and tragedies. The Survivors Club is the companion we need to prepare us for and guide us through the worst.

This book was fascinating, exciting and informative. This has dramatic and riveting stories and also goes into the psychology and neurophysiology of survival traits. It also reaches out to anyone going through their own survival quest.

great

This book was pretty fascinating. I was in awe of how people survived certain situations. The stories were unbelievable of the events that happened to people and how they willed their way to survival. Getting attacked by a cougar, ejecting from a fighter jet, getting stabbed with a, knitting needle, etc. I was very entertained the entire time.
I know this book was written 15 years ago, but it is disappointing that I could not go to the website and take the personality test regarding my survivor type

Crazy and entertaining survivor stories!

Any additional comments?

The stories of survival and how to survive in all sorts of situations were engaging and powerful. Thanks to this book I view choices I make very differently. I approach how I pick my seats on an air plane in a very new light. I travel awake and alert. I am aware of silly errors that can cause terrible outcomes. An eyeopener that sticks with you. Highly recommended reading.

This was an interesting look at survivor stories. The studies accompanying the stories were well researched. However, the connection between the two was not always clear and could feel more like a tangent than an addition. The reader was pretty dry for also being the author. The website which is referred to many time toward the end of the book is no longer active and is now a site for weed which is pretty great.

Interesting Read, But Companion Site is Gone

Terrific book. Sherwood sets out to understand who survives and who dies in trauma, and why. He makes the point that sooner or later most of us will face a test, often a life threatening test, and who enters the survivors club is not random. Certainly people have skills, instincts, and resources that allow them to survive (and even thrive) where others are killed or destroyed.

I had no idea that most plane crashes are survivable, but only survivable if you know what you are doing and have a plan. Same goes for car accidents, fires, violent attacks and those other events that could kill us. Sherwood is a journalist with a varied resume (former TV news producer, magazine writer), and he brings all his reporting skills to the question of who survives. The interviews with people who survived horrible accidents are gripping. My favorite is the pilot who survived ejecting from his airplane at faster then Mach 1! Highly recommended.

Chills down the spine. Why do some people survive and some don't? Great points on doing your very best to be a survivor. And what causes survivors to survive. A must read.
