Dr. ‘Bob,’ as his colleagues fondly call him, reminds us of how tenuous our health can be and how a single incident can plunge us into the abyss of despair, dysfunction, and chronic pain. His advocacy for injured workers, over many decades, is well known. He advises us to ‘Count your blessings rather than focus on how life could be better’ and ‘Don’t live in fear of injury and insult.’ This book is a must-read!
