520    Fascinated by the sport of freediving—in which competitors
       descend great depths on a single breath—journalist James 
       Nestor embeds with a gang of oceangoing extreme athletes 
       and renegade researchers. He finds whales that communicate
       with other whales hundreds of miles away, sharks that swim
       in unerringly straight lines through pitch-black waters, 
       and other strange phenomena. Most illuminating of all, he 
       learns that these abilities are reflected in humans’ 
       remarkable, and often hidden, potential—including 
       echolocation, directional sense, and the profound 
       physiological changes we undergo when underwater. Along 
       the way, Nestor unlocks his own freediving skills as he 
       communes with the pioneers who are expanding our 
       definition of what is possible in the natural world, and 
       in ourselves.
