Bill, I noticed many of the pages on the National Geographic site were written by Laurence Gonzales who wrote Deep Survival. http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/isbnInquiry.asp?z=y&EAN=9780393326154&itm=1

The book is an excellent read. From the title I would have guessed it's another book on how to light a fire in the rain, but bought the book after hearing the author on the radio. The book has nothing to do with physical survival techniques. Instead the book deals with why we get into survival situtations in the first place and how our brain and body reacts to these situations. I have a hard time putting it down and plan on reading the book a second time.
