Reversal is a frank, honest autobiography written in real-time about a young, athletic physical therapist's process in dealing with the diagnosis, surgery and rehabilitation for a brain tumor. He gives clear insights for those undergoing the same life-changing events as he did and also for those treating those individuals. I was struck by Eric's descriptions of challenges of day-to-day life and stunned by different stranger's reactions to him. I know it only gives me the smallest taste of what he has dealt with since his dianosis, but as a physical therapist myself, I feel the book gave me valuable insight into the lives of my own patients. I highly recommend Reversal for all students entering healtcare related fields, especially physical and occupational therapy.
A good old fashioned gothic mystery with all the atmosphere and intrigue. But...Morton writes with depth and an eye for detail that makes this much more than a shallow formulaic read.
I like this book so far! Good pick for book club.
