Terrorist attacks. Natural disasters. Domestic crackdowns.
Economic collapse. Riots. Wars. Disease. Starvation. What can you do when it all hits the fan? You can learn to be self-sufficient and survive without the
system. **I've started to look at the world through apocalypse
eyes.** So begins Neil Strauss's harrowing new book: his
first full-length worksince the international bestseller
The Game, and one of the most original-and provocative-
narratives of the year. After the last few years of violence and terror, of ethnic
and religious hatred, of tsunamis and hurricanes–and now of
world financial meltdown–Strauss, like most of his
generation, came to the sobering realization that, even in
America, anything can happen. But rather than watch
helplessly, he decided to do something about it. And so he
spent three years traveling through a country that's lost
its sense of safety, equipping himself with the tools
necessary to save himself and his loved ones from an
uncertain future. With the same quick wit and eye for cultural trends that
marked The Game, The Dirt, and How to Make Love Like a Porn
Star, Emergency traces Neil's white-knuckled journey
through today's heart of darkness, as he sets out to move
his life offshore, test his skills in the wild, and remake
himself as a gun-toting, plane-flying, government-defying
survivor. It's a tale of paranoid fantasies and crippling
doubts, of shady lawyers and dangerous cult leaders, of
billionaire gun nuts and survivalist superheroes, of
weirdos, heroes, and ordinary citizens going off the grid. It's one man's story of a dangerous world–and how to stay
alive in it. Before the next disaster strikes, you're going to want to
read this book. And you'll want to do everything it
suggests. Because tomorrow doesn't come with a guarantee...
