Against Giants: The Life and Climbs of a Disabled Mountaineer is the inspiring autobiographical account of Singapore mountaineer David Lim, who rebuilt his life after being struck by Guillain-Barré Syndrome shortly after leading Singapore’s historic Mount Everest expedition in 1998. Left partially disabled, Lim faced immense physical and emotional challenges during his long recovery. Rather than abandoning his passion for climbing, he resolved to return to the mountains and push beyond the limitations imposed by his condition.
Through a combination of personal reflections, dramatic expedition narratives and lessons learned from adversity, the book chronicles Lim’s journey from paralysis and rehabilitation to high-altitude mountaineering once again. He recounts encounters with extreme weather, dangerous terrain and life-threatening situations while exploring the determination, resilience and mental strength required to overcome seemingly impossible obstacles. More than an adventure memoir, the book is a powerful story of perseverance, courage and the human capacity to redefine what is possible in the face of disability and hardship.
