Together, these titles deliver true, often harrowing stories of courage, science, and split-second decision-making from one of Britain's most trusted and widely respected voices in frontline medicine and human performance research.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMinute Six: How High-Performance Teams Navigate the Unknown draws on Kevin Fong's working life inside high-risk, high-performance teams, from flying as a Helicopter Emergency Medical Service doctor to working alongside NASA's human spaceflight program and serving on the UK's frontline major-incident response. Told through gripping, true accounts of the most challenging emergencies across medicine, aviation, and spaceflight, the book provides counter-intuitive insights into how the best teams and organizations succeed against the odds, learn from failure, and keep going when a plan falls apart in its first moments of contact with reality. Extremes: How Far Can You Go to Save a Life? takes a different but complementary approach, with Dr. Fong examining the outer limits of human physiology. Drawing on his work as an anaesthetist and his television programs in which he has demonstrated the impact of extreme conditions on the human body, often using himself as the test subject, Fong walks readers through real medical emergencies, extreme environments, and the science of survival. Both books combine hard-won frontline expertise with accessible, page-turning storytelling, making complex medical and performance science feel immediate and human. Whether read separately or together, the two titles showcase Fong's rare ability to translate high-stakes science for a general audience, offering lessons on resilience, teamwork, and the human body that apply well beyond the operating room or launch pad.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo full-length nonfiction titles from acclaimed doctor and broadcaster Kevin Fong\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReal, high-stakes stories from medicine, aviation, and spaceflight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplores teamwork, crisis management, and human physical limits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand-new, unread copies in mixed hardcover and paperback format\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for readers of popular science, medicine, and true survival stories\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thoughtful gift for science enthusiasts, medical professionals, and curious minds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMinute Six: How High-Performance Teams Navigate the Unknown — A survival guide for high-stakes teamwork, drawing on Fong's experience across emergency medicine, aviation, and NASA spaceflight.\u003cbr\u003eExtremes: How Far Can You Go to Save a Life? — An exploration of human physiology under extreme stress, grounded in Dr. Fong's frontline anaesthetics work and television experiments on his own body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKevin Fong is a British doctor, anaesthetist, and expert in major-incident planning and response.
