Title: An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth Subtitle: What Going to Space Taught Me About Ingenuity, Determination, and Being Prepared for Anything Author: Chris Hadfield Narrator: Chris Hadfield Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 45 mins Language: English Release date: 10-29-13 Publisher: Hachette Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 1971 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs Publisher's Summary: Colonel Chris Hadfield has spent decades training as an astronaut and has logged nearly 4000 hours in space. During this time he has broken into a space station with a Swiss army knife, disposed of a live snake while piloting a plane, and been temporarily blinded while clinging to the exterior of an orbiting spacecraft. The secret to Col. Hadfield's success - and survival - is an unconventional philosophy he learned at NASA: prepare for the worst and enjoy every moment of it. In An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth Col. Hadfield takes listeners deep into his years of training and space exploration to show how to make the impossible possible. Through eye-opening, entertaining stories filled with the adrenaline of launch; the mesmerizing wonder of spacewalks; and the measured, calm responses mandated by crises, he explains how conventional wisdom can get in the way of achievement - and happiness. His own extraordinary education in space has taught him some counterintuitive lessons: don't visualize success, do care what others think, and always sweat the small stuff. You might never be able to build a robot, pilot a spacecraft, make a music video or perform basic surgery in zero gravity like Col. Hadfield. But his vivid and refreshing insights will teach you how to think like an astronaut, and will change, completely, the way you view life on Earth - especially your own. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.
