For the past 25 years, Belinda Kirk' s professional life has revolved around adventure. She' s seen it change people first hand: turning the timid into the confident, the addicted into the recovering, and the lost into the intentionally wandering. As a force for change, adventure can be powerful like few others. This book is about this transformational power. From managing anxiety and overcoming fear, to finding self-worth and building interpersonal connections, to being happier, healthier, and more playful, ADVENTURE REVOLUTION draws lessons from more than two decades of experience leading groups into the wilderness around the globe. Illuminated with Belinda' s personal narrative, her own research with modern hunter-gatherers, and the latest findings in brain and behaviour, ADVENTURE REVOLUTION presents a compelling case for ditching the living room in favour of a longer, happier, and more adventurous life.

For the past 25 years, Belinda has led numerous personal expeditions, youth development expeditions, biological research missions, and remote filming trips for the BBC. She has walked across Nicaragua, searched for camels in China' s Desert of Death, discovered ancient rock paintings in Lesotho, pioneered inclusive expeditions for people with disabilities, and gained a Guinness World Record for rowing unsupported around Britain. As an expert expedition leader and Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society, Belinda has also managed remote trips for Bear Grylls, Chris Ryan, and Ray Mears, among others.
