I was a fan of the BBC show Top Gear in which Richard Hammond is a presenter. I'm not into cars, but the chemistry between he and the other presenters, Jeremy Clarkson and James May, was so special it was like watching three kids with a toy. I said "was" because the three now have a new unnamed show on Amazon Prime. I had heard mentions of Richard's accident, and saw it on YouTube. Horrific. Both Richard and his wife, Mindy, are respected journalists. It isn't often you get the victim and the carer's experience with a head injury. Reading about the events from different points of view, makes you realize that head injuries are an injury while unseen from the outside, are taken for granted if the person recovers that they are "well" and if not a vegetable. An excellent book for a wide ranging audience.
