She takes us into the harrowing split-second decisions that determine whether a diver makes it back to safety, the prejudices that prevent women from pursuing careers underwater, and her endeavor to recover a fallen friend's body from the confines of a cave. But there's beauty beyond the danger of diving, and while Heinerth swims beneath our feet in the lifeblood of our planet, she works with biologists discovering new species, physicists tracking climate change, and hydrogeologists examining our finite freshwater reserves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003eWritten with hair-raising intensity, \u003cem\u003eInto the Planet \u003c\/em\u003eis the first book to deliver an intimate account of cave diving, transporting readers deep into inner space, where fear must be reconciled and a mission's success balances between knowing one's limits and pushing the envelope of human endurance.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom one of the world's most renowned cave divers, a firsthand account of exploring the earth's final frontier\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMore people have died exploring underwater caves than climbing Mount Everest, and we know more about deep space than we do about the depths of our oceans. \u003cem\u003eInto the Planet\u003c\/em\u003e blends science, adventure, and memoir to bring readers face-to-face with the terror and beauty of earth's remaining unknowns and the extremes of human capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs one of the most celebrated cave divers in the world, Jill Heinerth has seen the planet in a way almost no one has.
