Description
Flying Without Wings: Personal Reflections on Loss, Disability, and Healing
A deeply moving account of one man's search for a new life and meaning after a devastating bout of polio left him permanently paralyzed. With courage and determination, Arnold Beisser transcends his disability to practice psychiatry, fall in love, and find joy in everyday living.
This book shares the wisdom that nothing can keep us from love, laughter, meaningful work, or enlightenment - except ourselves. A powerful exploration of the human spirit, Flying Without Wings is a testament to the resilience of the human heart.
