Auszeichnungen
Mountaineer Simpson, himself left for dead in Peru, considers the ethics of the sport, including whether it is ethical for climbers to ignore the injured and the dying simply because to help the less fortunate might compromise their own summit bid. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

However, Joe Simpson certainly has something to say that's worth hearing. His own near-death experience, well documented in the excellent book "Touching the Void," gives him an interesting perspective. This book, which is part memoir and part essay on concerns about climbing ethics and the attitude of getting to the summit at any cost.
An interesting and thought provoking read. ( )
