I love reading survival stories; they are some of my favorite. Can anyone recommend any good ones?

This has been my favorite since I was a kid and read Robinson Crusoe, The Swiss Family Robinsons, and The Hatchet.

What can you comment about the survival of the fittest in human race?
I agree that human evolved through natural selection. The best-suited traits were passed into the new generation to survive the harsh environment and to reproduce. Now that human has great intelligence that even we have physical vulnerability/deficiency, we managed to survive due to our ability to protect ourself from danger and adopt to our environment with the help of technology and innovation and not by our physical capability. Can I conclude that the trend is more about "survival of the smartest"?
