Book Synopsis At the Will of the Body by : Arthur W. Frank
Book excerpt: "In this deeply affecting memoir, Arthur Frank explores the events of illness from within: the transformation from person to patient, the pain, and the ceremony of recovery....In poignant and clear prose, he offers brilliant insights into the circumstances when our bodies emotions are pushed to the extreme. Ultimately, he examines what it means to be human."--Publisher.
