In the tradition of Norman Cousins

In the tradition of Norman Cousins, who revealed in Anatomy of an Illness that he found laughter to be a better medicine than the concoctions cooked up by Big Pharm, entrepreneur Sid Baron has compiled a series of humorous episodes taken from his own life that are intended to evoke healing chuckles. Baron knows whereof he speaks, being a survivor of multiple sclerosis who has "experienced nearly every devastating symptom of the disease.... There is no doubt in my mind that my lighthearted sense of humor was, and is, a very important component of surviving MS." That said, Baron's sense of humor may not appeal to everyone, as many of his stories involve pranks and practical jokes that were no doubt funnier to him at the time than his friends and colleagues who involuntarily played along. But as a prescriptive memoir, this book otherwise does everything right: the writing is crisp, clean, and episodic, the design is professional and inviting, and the overall intention is right on. One hopes that author Baron is advertising this work via the AARP.-- D. Patrick Miller for the FEARLESS REVIEWS
