Kevin Fong has spent his working life in high-risk, high-performance teams - flying as a Helicopter Emergency Medical Service doctor, working with NASA's human spaceflight programme, as well as being part of the UK's frontline response to major incidents and terror attacks.

Told through gripping stories of the most challenging, high-pressure emergencies across medicine, aviation and spaceflight, Minute Six provides crucial, counter-intuitive insights into how the best teams and organisations succeed against the odds, learn from failure and go again.
