[BookReview] Flight of the Phoenix

How the minds of men work esp. in bad situations, is the theme of this book. People who look really strong may not be so strong in adverse conditions...
This book reminds of that Hyundai Ad : "Because we dream.... Because we do"

Actually if you think about it the main reason for the emergence of man above the other animals could very well be a message of this story...
How man beat the seemingly unsurmountable odds, given his weaknesses, his lack of strength and powerful enemies...
Then again... Maybe not.

A plane carrying a monkey, a group of oil workers, british soldiers and an inventor crashes in the Sahara!!

How they handle the situation, fight it and nearly lose their lives is what the book is about.
