“In my seven years that I continue to recover from a horrific motor vehicle crash, I have never come across such an enlightening, resourceful, and informative book that I could relate to. A remarkable read that touches on every struggle that we face after surviving such a life changing event. A silent pandemic that now speaks loudly and a book that every crash survivor should have!”

“Dr. Zender’s book is a must read for anyone unfortunate enough to be injured in an auto accident. Accident victims are often underserved by medical providers and they often receive fragmented care and too little attention to their emotional and cognitive injuries. This book will also be of value to their families and caregivers who would like to understand the full impact of an accident. From someone who has been treating many of these patients for more than 30 years, let me say “Well done!””

“Brain injury is significant and complex and far reaching, often misunderstood and underserved. Dr. Zender has expertly illuminated what is a mysterious condition to most people. His efforts to help people understand the condition and a path to healing should be commended. He explains how brain injury victims have a fear of being crazy, they suffer from depression, and that pain is a powerful, interruptive force. He encourages the importance of empathy and emphasizes the power of group therapy and the benefits of meditation. His book is an excellent resource to help these victims and their families.”

“Drawing upon over 30 years experience in psychological traumatology, Dr. James Zender has put together a comprehensive masterpiece that can be a guiding light for those struggling through the labyrinth known as traumatic brain injury.”
