Buy It: "The Man He Became"

This book is great history and biography. At the same time it offers scores of insights into what it is like to experience new disability, both the pain and fear of the conditions themselves, and the social dimensions that become even more important. I found my admiration for Franklin Roosevelt deepen and take unique shape after reading this book.

Earlier this year, I wrote a three-part review which you can read at the links below:

Part One: "Virus and Host"

Part Two: "He's Through"

Part Three: "Resurrection", and Conclusions
