Links / Books

I’ve been reading a fair amount of books about strokes and surf the web a lot about Rob’s various conditions. If anyone has a suggestions for reading, we would be very interested. I also have a “wish list” on Amazon for books I am considering when I have the time/money (some books are on other topics). So far, here is the list of books we already have:

Books (English)

• My Stroke Of Insight – Jill Bolte Taylor

• Rewire Your Brain, Rewire Your Life – Bob Guns
• Healing Into Possibility – Alison Bonds Shapiro
• Stronger After Stroke – Peter G. Levine

Books (Dutch)

• Leven na een beroerte – J. Palm
• Mijn jaar vrij – Robert McCrum
