I recently posted a list too!
The Unthinkable: who survives when disaster strikes and why by Amanda Ripley
^How did you like this? I have this on my wishlist to check out from the library, and it looks pretty similar:

I liked it a lot, though it was morbid at times. It does look similar to that book, but it focuses more on people who didn't engage in behaviors we think of as high risk - going on a flight, going to work (as in the case of 9/11), etc.
