An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth

Chris Hadfield spent decades training as an astronaut and has logged nearly 4,000 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 his success’- and survival – is an unconventional philosophy he learned at NASA: prepare for the worst – and enjoy every moment of it.

You might never get to pilot a spacecraft like Colonel Hadfield, but his refreshing, hard-won wisdom will teach you how to think like an astronaut, and will change the way you view. life on Earth – especially your own.
