How to Survive and Thrive in an Impossible World (second edition)

In this 'regenerated' second edition of his much-loved book, psychologist, adventurer, and vagabond philosopher Steve Carter / Steve Bonham offers a bold new guide to life in uncertain times. Instead of clinging to the old ways, he invites you to rewild your spirit, reclaim your resilience, and embrace your own fierce resourcefulness and diversity. Through vivid stories, mischievous wisdom, and practical tools, How to Survive and Thrive in an Impossible World shows how to meet chaos not with fear, but with curiosity, courage, and a deep sense of joy.
