Book excerpt: We live in a society governed by fear. Packets of peanuts "may contain nuts", our children are locked away safe indoors, and we are encouraged to fear risks that previous generations took for granted. The result is a temptation never to leave the house. 'How to Live Dangerously' is a sane, straight-talking, wonderfully entertaining manifesto that assesses the real risks of modern-day life, and encourages us to embrace a new freedom in the way we live. Sometimes, sh1t happens - but you may as well get out there and enjoy yourself while you can because, in the end, you're a long time dead.
