Sinopse

Discover the hidden world of those who live—and sometimes die—on the edge. Daredevils: Unmasking the Addicted Risk-Taker plunges into the heart of risk-taking addiction, revealing how an innocent thrill can spiral into a life-consuming compulsion.Ever wondered why some people scale skyscrapers without ropes, race motorcycles at breakneck speed, or chase hurricanes for a shot of adrenaline? In Daredevils, you’ll uncover:The Science of the RushHow brain chemistry transforms everyday moments into powerful highs—and why our own reward pathways can trap us in a cycle of craving, tolerance, and withdrawal.Case Studies & Real-World ExamplesAnonymized, first-hand accounts—from rooftop parkour to storm chasing—show how weekend diversions morph into full-blown addictions, complete with close calls and hard lessons.Warning Signs & Self-ChecksPractical tools like the Risk–Reward Scale, Urge–Outcome Diary, and Life-Balance Audit help you spot subtle red flags—obsession, escalation, withdrawal—and honestly measure your own relationship with danger.The Hidden CostsBeyond bruises and broken bones lie the emotional fallout, strained relationships, legal entanglements, and chronic anxiety that follow unmanaged risk.Why Some Are More VulnerableExplore how genetic predispositions, personality traits like sensation-seeking and impulsivity, and environmental triggers—especially in adolescence—fuel a dangerous appetite for extremes.Treatment & RehabilitationDive into evidence-based pathways: from cognitive-behavioral and dialectical therapies to immersive rehab programs that rebuild balance through controlled adventure, group support, and skill-building.Alternative Therapies & Personal Recovery StoriesBe inspired by creative outlets—art, music, nature immersion—and moving tales of triumph from those who’ve rewritten their futures, channeling their need for novelty into life-affirming pursuits.Prevention & Healthy AlternativesArm yourself with strategies to intercept early warning tremors and redirect urges into structured sports, high-intensity interval training, mindful practices, and community service—proving true exhilaration can exist without courting catastrophe.Filled with cutting-edge research, relatable insights, and a supportive first-person voice, Daredevils doesn’t just explain the biology and psychology of risk addiction—it empowers you to reclaim your freedom. You’ll gain the clarity to safeguard your well-being, the tools to help loved ones break free, and a new vision of adventure grounded in balance and purpose.Don’t let the next adrenaline craving control your life. Step back from the brink, seize control of your story, and discover how to thrive beyond the edge. Grab Daredevils: Unmasking the Addicted Risk-Taker today!

    Travel the Bruce Trail in day hikes with Loops & Lattes author Nicola Ross 
    		 
    Best known for her detailed Loops & Lattes hiking guides, Nicola Ross has inspired tens of thousands of people to lace up their boots and explore Ontario’s trails. In 40 Days & 40 Hikes, this adventurer, author, and environmentalist sets herself a new challenge: to hike the Bruce Trail from Niagara to Tobermory in her own creative way. In 40 cleverly crafted day-loops, Ross covers over 900 kilometers mostly following Canada’s longest marked trail, taking you with her on an insightful journey to the Niagara Escarpment’s remarkable sights.
    		 
    As Ross walks, she reveals stories of the trail’s flora and fauna, geology and history. The Bruce Trail becomes the central character as she ponders her role in protecting the fragile corner of the planet that, she contends, is entwined in her DNA. Despite long days on the trail, encounters with bears, ticks, and a deadly derecho, her passion for her beloved Niagara Escarpment mounts as she explores Ontario’s “ribbon of wilderness.”
    		 
    Perfect for hikers, non-hikers, and anyone who loves an adventure, 40 Days & 40 Hikes is both a captivating travelogue and a useful companion for those who Ross will undoubtedly inspire to follow in her footsteps.
