St. Anselm of Canterbury: A Chapter in the History of Religion (1896)

aThis is a story about losing something, something really precious, and finding it again.a In January 2001, at age forty, he suffered a sudden, near-fatal heart-attack. During his recovery, he went through countless visits to hospitals and doctorsa clinics, and through two heart surgeries. After his heart attack, doctors told him that he would never jog again. Under the care of nurses and physicians, and with the support of family and friends, he recovered and trained. In April of 2003, exactly one year after a triple-bypass, open-heart surgery, he ran the Boston Marathon. Against the backdrop of a deluge of current events including 9/11, the Columbia Space Shuttle disaster, and a deep economic recession that affected him personally, The Rebound describes his tribulations and success. The book is about focusing on the next step forward, refusing to be fettered by the past, or intimidated by future.
