The Brain’s Way of Healing: Stories
of Remarkable Recoveries and
Discoveries
by Norman Doidge, 2015
The Brain’s Way of Healing describes
natural, non-invasive avenues into
the brain provided by the energy
around us—in light, sound, vibration,
and movement—that can awaken the
brain’s own healing capacities
without producing unpleasant side
effects. Doidge explores cases where
patients alleviated chronic pain;
recovered from debilitating strokes,
brain injuries, and learning
disorders; overcame attention deficit
and learning disorders; and found
relief from symptoms of autism,
multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s
disease, and cerebral palsy. We also
learn how to vastly reduce the risk of
dementia, with simple approaches
anyone can use.

Dog’s Getting Fat: Living with
Tetraplegia
by Hamish Ramsden, 2020
This book is a very personal account
of Hamish's life as a tetraplegic
without trying to be overly
motivational. It has a subtle mix of
humour which contrasts well with the
traumatic theme of the book. It starts
from the moment of his accident, on
the family farm in Southern Hawke's
Bay, New Zealand, in 1994.
The story details his rehabilitation at
the Burwood Spinal Unit, and his
resettlement into his home
environment. Nine years after his
accident his life takes a dramatic turn,
which brings new highs and new lows.
