  Features a new "where are they now" section, with updates about lives of expedition's original climbers and updated resources based on the "Anti-Racism in the Outdoors" (ARITO) guide. 
   
   
   
  Outdoor journalist James Edward Mills's book, The Adventure Gap, is a groundbreaking volume that is equal parts adventure story, history, and inspiration as it chronicles the first American all-Black summit attempt on Denali in 2013. Mills uses this momentous expedition as a jumping-off point to explore diversity in the outdoors, from Mathew Henson who stood at the North Pole in 1909 to contemporary adventurers such as polar explorer Barbara Hillary and rock climber Kai Lightner. 
   
   
   
  This tenth anniversary edition once again shares the compelling events that unfolded during Expedition Denali's summit bid. But it also provides fresh context: A new thought-provoking afterword by Mills examines what has evolved in and around the outdoor community since that effort. He highlights progress and inspiring stories, such as Full Circle Everest, an expedition led by Phillip Henderson that put an all-Black team on top of the world's highest peak. And he points to places where we can and should all strive for higher achievement. The Adventure Gap has become an essential text in outdoor education and inspiration—a story of our times, now more relevant than ever.

  "Fascinating and exhilarating—Sean B. Carroll at his very best."—Bill Bryson, author of The Body: A Guide for Occupants
  
  In this audiobook, acclaimed writer and biologist Sean B. Carroll narrates the rollicking, awe-inspiring story of the surprising power of chance in our lives and the world
  
  Why is the world the way it is? How did we get here? Does everything happen for a reason or are some things left to chance? Philosophers and theologians have pondered these questions for millennia, but startling scientific discoveries over the past half century are revealing that we live in a world driven by chance. A Series of Fortunate Events tells the story of the awesome power of chance and how it is the surprising source of all the beauty and diversity in the living world.
  
  Like every other species, we humans are here by accident. But it is shocking just how many things—any of which might never have occurred—had to happen in certain ways for any of us to exist. From an extremely improbable asteroid impact, to the wild gyrations of the Ice Age, to invisible accidents in our parents' gonads, we are all here through an astonishing series of fortunate events. And chance continues to reign every day over the razor-thin line between our life and death.
  
  This is a relatively small book about a really big idea. It is also a spirited tale. Drawing inspiration from Monty Python, Kurt Vonnegut, and other great thinkers, and crafted by one of today's most accomplished science storytellers, A Series of Fortunate Events is an irresistibly entertaining and thought-provoking account of one of the most important but least appreciated facts of life.

  Willpower is not the answer. Design is everything.
   
  If you or someone you love has tried to quit drinking, gambling, scrolling, or using—only to relapse again and again—you know the shame of being told to “just try harder.” But the real problem isn't your willpower. It's your brain.
   
  Addiction and Recovery Rewired integrates the latest neuroscience, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and relapse prevention engineering into a step‑by‑step program that works for both substance addictions (alcohol, opioids, cannabis) and behavioral addictions (gambling, pornography, gaming, social media, shopping).
   
  You will discover:
   
  Why your prefrontal cortex—the brain's CEO—gets hijacked and how to rebuild it.
   
  The 15‑minute craving wave and how to surf it instead of fighting it.
   
  A 2‑Minute Interruption Protocol to break the ritual of use before it starts.
   
  How to design your home, phone, and daily routines so sobriety becomes the path of least resistance.
   
  A week‑by‑week neurochemical roadmap for the first 90 days—and what to expect when anhedonia (the inability to feel pleasure) lasts longer.
   
  Family dynamics: how to stop enabling, set a Non‑Negotiable Contract, and repair trust.
   
  Why community is medicine and how to find your recovery tribe—whether in 12‑step, SMART Recovery, or online.
   
  No more white‑knuckling. No more shame. Just a science‑based, compassionate path to a life you don't want to escape.
   
  You don't quit an addiction. You replace it with a life worth staying sober for.
