An astoundingly effective guide to recreating a happy and fulfilling life after catastrophe strikes, from the cofounder of the Survivor Corps, who Lance Armstrong says "embodies the spirit of survivorship. " Whether it's the loss of a loved one, a painful divorce, or a serious injury, we must all face personal catastrophe. These events take a heavy toll, but there are those who have muscled their way through tough times and emerged stronger, wiser -- even grateful for their struggle. Author Jerry White is one such example. In 1984, he lost his leg in a tragic accident. Through the organization he founded, White has interviewed thousands of victims of tragedy. With this book, he shares what he has learned. White outlines an effective five-step program for turning tragedy into triumph. In their own words, his fellow survivors share their stories -- including Lance Armstrong, Elie Wiesel, and the late Princess Diana. White takes readers through the process of not only getting through tragedy, but going on to survive and thrive. pub date: 2008-04-29 | hardcover | 9780312368951 |
