Reviews

Fleisher's story is one of a highly intelligent young man-who has managed to overcome or at least mitigate some of the disabling aspects of his condition. Fleisher speaks from within his condition and the message of hope he gives in being able to make progress towards a richer, more fulfilled and less frightened existence. -- Young People Now
