Inhaltsangabe:

Behavioral scientist Struster distills the experiences and responses of people who, alone or in small groups, have been isolated and confined in small places, and challenged by extreme conditions. In addition to polar and space explorers, he culls from diaries and other accounts of shipwreck and disaster survivors, prisoners of war, and experimental subjects; and he recommends principles and cautions for future expeditions. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
