We live in a world of safety, where danger is nothing more than a threat to be eliminated. Regulations are passed in the name of "common sense," stripping away all that makes life exciting. Be it gun laws, speech laws, or speed limits, all eliminate risk and boldness, the very spirit that built civilization.But this book rejects this culture of safety in favor of the value of danger.Danger gave us all the great epics of history, all the Great Men, the explorers and inventors, and their deeds. The life we live today is a product of danger. Not one of safety and caution, but of bold courage and reckless risk.Why, then, should we throw away all that life has, just for a little peace of mind?This is why this book is In Defense of Danger.
