We are never in full control of how people and events affect us, no matter how hard we may try to persuade ourselves otherwise. These ten people, some of whom, at first, appear down to earth and ordinary, have extraordinary qualities. Over the course of 5 decades the author has been intrigued, inspired and baffled, but above all— grateful, for their permanent, indelible imprint on his psyche.
Some examples are the author being healed in 5 minutes after two years of constant pain and failed medical treatment; a politician with extraordinary dowsing abilities; another politician with an unusual nickname and 20/20 vision at 93 years of age; a soldier who saved over 100,000 lives; a person left stranded alone on an island for over 4 years; a female adventurer who repeatedly skirts death — to a person who has turned long-held medical beliefs on their heads, and more.
A hard-to-put-down read that makes you think twice! An excellent travel book.
