Story
Thrive or die: That's the rule of evolution. Despite this brutal logic, some species have learned to survive in even the most hostile conditions. Others couldn't - and perished. While incremental genetic adaptations hone the physiology of nearly every creature on this planet, there's another evolutionary force that is just as important: the power of choice. In this explosive investigation into the limits of endurance, journalist Scott Carney discovers how humans can wedge control over automatic physiological responses into the breaking point between stress and biology.

Investigative journalist and anthropologist Scott Carney takes up the challenge to find out: Can we hack our bodies and use the environment to stimulate our inner biology?

In his early 20s, Curtis Jackson, known as 50 Cent, rose to the heights of fame and power in the cutthroat music business. A decade ago, the multi-platinum selling rap artist decided to pivot. His ability to adapt to change was demonstrated when he became the executive producer and star of Power, a high-octane, gripping crime drama centered around a drug kingpin's family. The series quickly became "appointment" television, leading to Jackson inking a four-year, $150 million contract with the Starz network - the most lucrative deal in premium cable history.

Summary
New York Times Best Seller
Surfing icon Laird Hamilton offers inspiration to anyone who wants to elevate their ordinary, landlocked lives to do extraordinary things.
“When Laird Hamilton surfs, you must watch. When he speaks, I listen. And when he writes a book, I’m damn sure gonna read it. Twice.” (Eddie Vedder, Grammy Award-winning lead vocalist of Pearl Jam)
Millions of us increasingly seek happiness in fads and self-help books, reaching upward every day toward some enlightened state that we wish to attain. Laird Hamilton is more intent on looking inward and appreciating the brilliant creatures we already are. In Liferider, Laird uses five key pillars - Death & Fear, Heart, Body, Soul, and Everything Is Connected - to illustrate his unique worldview and life practices. This is Laird Hamilton in his own words - raw, honest, and unvarnished - on topics he has rarely explored before.
Based on extensive interviews and conversations between Laird and his coauthor, Julian Borra, with additional insights from Laird’s wife, pro-volleyball player Gabby Reece, Liferider takes on human resilience, relationships, business, technology, risk-taking, and the importance of respecting the natural world, all through the lens of Laird’s extraordinary life both in and beyond the ocean.
Praise for Liferider
“Laird is a hero, if you want him to be. That’s up to your perception. He challenges himself, and he challenges those around him. He shows us that the deeper we puncture into life, the more vibrant the colors get. The Laird Hamilton I know - real, faulty, moody, deeply loving, and communal - comes through on every page of Liferider.” (Josh Brolin, award-winning actor)
Critic reviews
“This book is like a one-on-one chat with Laird, a personal conversation about his philosophies. You can’t be champ without an untamable fire inside, and you can feel that here. His spirit is raw and to the point. As athletes retire and sail into the sunset, Laird keeps pushing, finding and finding new ways to improve.” (Joakim Noah, two-time NBA All-Star)
“A powerful message from Laird on what it means to ‘go beyond’ and how it can be applied by all. He hones in on the dualities of life and death, focusing on what’s most important: making the most of the time we have, and living aloha, connected to and caring for each other and our environment.” (Tulsi Gabbard, Congresswoman serving Hawaii's 2nd district)

Nothing Earth Shattering
Maybe my expectations were too high for this book by Laird who I see as a superhero. I have tons of respect and admiration for what he's accomplished as an athlete and human being. The book delves into many topics including; Hawaiin traditions, technology, entrepreneurship, health, spirituality and the environment. The common theme is about how all this "stuff" (a word that was so overused It became annoying) is interconnected. Even though part of the subtitle is "Life Beyond the Ocean" he winds up talking about the ocean quite a bit! All in all this book was just OK

So disappointed!
Like many other reviewers have stated, I am a fan of Laird Hamilton. This book however was simply awful. It’s disjointed beyond anything I’ve read or listened to. I have just finished the book and if I was asked to summarize it, I’m not sure that I could. So many random quotes, ideas, and narrators. It felt like a six hour rant.
At times I felt like Laird was simply saying, “the world has become too complicated for me and I’m terrified of technology and AI”!
The rest of the book was listening to how Laird is better than everyone else at everything else. Business, athletics, relationships, connectedness, so philosophy, and meditation. Oh, but he is also the most humble guy in the room! 🤷🏻♂️
For the record, I attempted to return/exchange this book after the first 30 minutes, but it was gifted to me and apparently that’s against Audible policy.

Tremendous Lessons from one of Earth’s baddest Mofos
Loved this book! I hate a biographical book that just tries to make the person sound cooler than they actually are and I’ve heard/read quite a few of those. This wasn’t about putting Laird’s ego in print but more about spreading the vital lessons that he has learned throughout his life. Everyone should read this book from CEOs of major corporations to confused teenagers wondering where to find purpose. Thanks to all involved! Ohana! 🤙🏽

Not what you expect
This isn’t Laird on foils or SUP. It’s his philosophy on connectedness. It’s not a bro-ography nor is it a blog book (can we stop the cheater reviews calling books “blog posts”?). Enjoyed it, learned some things, appreciated the message. Only wished he would have narrated, but folks get busy. Worth the listen!

This book was written by someone we can all admire for sharing his spin on how the world spins. It is very timely as we are all so connected to each other and the Earth as a living organism part of the vibrant Universe.

THE VOICE
I have written one book in my life including publishing it for sale on Amazon. It is about knee replacement.
One of the biggest compliments/honors the readers can offer me is two things, One, I can hear your voice when you write, Two, your book helped me out in the process of a knee replacement. This is what made Laird's book special for me. I had the opportunity to do a two-week exploration of Costa Rica with Laird and a few friends before reading this book. I always looked up to Laird for his surfing talents and innovation. But during reading, this book showed me a side of Laird that was much bigger than I ever imagined. His insight his wisdom commands 100% respect. Not just some surf-fueled pages about all of his surfing accomplishments but the genuine struggles and victories along the pathway to greatness. I listen to this book on Audible and it is not his actual voice but instead a narrator but I could still hear Laird's voice which resinated powerfully on message delivery. Laird and his wife Gabby reignited my energy to get off my ass and start moving to make myself better healthier and more success-driven. I highly recommend the book to surfers and nonsurfers alike. 5 stars

A great book on the philosophy of one of the worlds top athletes
Great book and great insight into the philosophy that drives one of the worlds most incredible athletes. Not just some shallow pointers on how to “be Laird”, more so the underlying philosophy that drives the man. Great insights from his wife Gabby Reece, an incredible athlete herself. From spiritual connection to business philosophy this book covers many parts of this complex man. A great book for anyone interested in what drives one of the worlds greatest big wave surfers.
