To the Limits: Pushing Yourself to the Edge-In Adventure and in Business, by James M. Clash, hardcover, 272 pages, $27.95, from John C. Wiley & Sons, www.wiley.com

By day, Jim Clash is a mild-mannered associate editor at Forbes magazine, working to cover the world of mutual funds-not exactly the kind of beat where you'd expect to find a daredevil. But it seems his association with various risk-takers in the business world makes Clash quite comfortable setting off on adventures all over the world, oftentimes accompanied by those high-flying business people he writes about.

Clash has climbed Mount Kilimanjaro and the Matterhorn, soared to the edge of space in a MiG fighter, and dived to the bottom of the sea to view the wreck of the Titanic, and has written stories about his experiences. And he has driven cars- an IRL car and a Lamborghini Murcielago-at more than 200 mph. Clash's Lamborghini drive at the Nardo test track in Italy was inspired by a story in AutoWeek on that car last June.
