Neil Strauss

Available as eBook

Learn from the master how to turn yourself into an action hero - the author of The Game turns his hand to survival

With the economic downturn, the hysterical Swine Flu frenzy and the systemic corruption of our political system we need someone to guide us through these difficult times. Emergency tells how Strauss went from shivering the whole night through in a water-logged sleeping bag on a tracking course, with only his broken Blackberry for company, to being the well-trained and even better equipped survival expert he is today.

Encountering a host of weird and hilarious characters along the way, Strauss’s timely and wry look at the The End of the World As We Know It will make you glad you chose to be on his side.


“Fast-paced, often hysterically funny, Emergency is the ultimate self-help manual for those determined to be the last man standing.”
