From the child who dreamed about space while rubbing shoulders with the Cape Kennedy astronauts, to the initiator of the first trip around the world in a balloon and of the Solar Impulse project, Bertrand Piccard has always combined science and adventure to explore the human soul. By following that trace in the sky, he became a doctor, a psychiatrist and then a hypno-therapist, and turned his efforts towards research, to find out what makes life meaningful. A mixture of narration, personal experience and reflection, this book illustrates the ideas and thoughts which turned this 'scientist-adventurer' into one of the most sought-after speakers in the world. Aware of the fact that his readers are not getting ready for a flight in a balloon, but rather trying to find in his quest a source of inspiration for their personal and professional lives, he uses his aerial experiences to develop his concept of the philosophy of life, of human behavior, and of how to deal with stress and crisis situations. This lavishly illustrated, large-format book, with original layout, is a philosophical study of the author's flying experiences that draws far-reaching reflections on the psychology of life.

The gripping story of the history-making around-the-world balloon flight as told by the pilots themselves. In this dramatic and inspiring account, adventurers Bertrand Piccard and Brian Jones, the pilots of the Breitling Orbiter 3 balloon, tell the remarkable story of their record-breaking, first-ever around-the-world balloon flight in March 1999.

During their 30,000-mile voyage, they faced many unexpected challenges and near-disasters, including a harrowing six-and-a-half-day trip across the Pacific when the balloon came dangerously close to plunging into the ocean. Using their logbook and journals, as well as photographs taken on- board, Piccard and Jones have brought their 20-day marathon flight vividly to life, capturing the emotion of their many moments of high tension, as well as the uplifting humor and camaraderie that helped them persevere. This is the tale of a great adventure that shows how two very different characters forged a unique relationship during the greatest challenge of their lives. Weniger anzeigen
