Defying Limits: Lessons from the Edge of the Universe (Signed) - Williams, Dr. Dave

SIGNED BY DR. DAVE WILLIAMS on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; slight wear to edges of dust jacket; otherwise absolute minimal wear; Dr. Dave Williams has led a life that most people only dream of. He has set records for spacewalking, lived undersea for weeks at a time, saved lives as an emergency doctor, launched into the stratosphere twice, and performed surgery in zero gravity. There were setbacks and challenges along the way - the loss of friends in the Columbia disaster, a cancer diagnosis that nearly prevented him from returning to space - but through it all, Dave never lost sight of his goal. And when he finally had the chance to fly among the stars, he learned that the destination can be spectacular, but it's the journey that counts. This is an inspirational, uplifting, and life-affirming memoir about being an astronaut and a physician, an adventurer and an explorer of the world. Dave proves that whether we're gravity-defying astronauts or earthbound terrestrials, we can ll live infinite, fulfilled lives by relishing the value of each moment.
