I became interested in Win while researching heated jackets (Columbia sports wear uses him as an interesting spokesperson). If you're more interested in cold acclimation and its health benefits, this book may not be for you, or at least, you'll simpl...more

Once, every other year or so, I like to astound my partner by reading some fiction. Glad I pict this one - it was indeed very good. I like that I could start connecting the dots, er "holes" early on, yet it didn't take away from the finishing the st...more

Listened off my Audible.com account. Great, eye opening information. Would be a 5 star, but I prefer the facts up front and back-story to be optional. His "discovery process" of the information was a wee-bit to windy for me at times. A plus for readi...more

Very nice easy read. Great tone and humor to it.

I finished this a while ago, but like what I learned from it especially about sleep and properly feeding the brain. Things mentioned in this book link hand in hand and have made other books I've been...more
