Description
Roberts, a celebrated mountaineer, has spent his career documenting voyages to the most extreme landscapes on earth. Reflecting on humanity's-- and his own-- relationship to extreme risk, he examines the motivations of explorers who have pushed the limits of the human body on their perilous journeys. Then he considers our future in a world we will have mapped and trodden from end to end. -- adapted from jacket.
