<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Many physicians think they need to be infallible to be successful, but no one is immune from mental illness."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>2020 PenCraft Award Winner - Nonfiction (Autobiography)</strong></p><p><strong>"This is an eye-opening memoir about mental illness and the medical profession delivered in a well-written, interesting, and engaging style." -<em>Sublime Book Review</em></strong></p><p><strong>"Kyle Bradford Jones's memoir <em>Fallible </em>travels the many rugged mine fields of being a young physician struggling with mental illness with a winning strength and grace." -<em>IndieReader</em></strong></p><p>Nearly 1 in every 5 Americans deal with mental illness in a given year, and the rates are climbing. Among physicians, the rate is even higher as the time spent in medical training significantly increases the risk of poor mental health. None of us are fully immune from the ravages of mental health problems. This book is about the fallibility of us all, including the doctors who are supposed to care for us. It is about the fine line of illness and normal emotion, and about how to change the norms of medical practice in light of human weakness. It's for individuals who suffer from mental illness. It's for their loved ones. It's for anyone who interacts with someone with a mental illness. In short, it's for all of us.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><strong>2020 Maxy Awards Finalist - Nonfiction</strong></p><p>"This immersive, eye-opening journey reveals the effects of mental illness on a physician." <strong>-<em>Kirkus</em><em> Reviews</em></strong></p><p>"This is an eye-opening memoir about mental illness and the medical profession delivered in a well-written, interesting, and engaging style." <strong>-<em>Sublime Book Review</em></strong></p><p>"Kyle Bradford Jones's memoir <em>Fallible </em>travels the many rugged mine fields of being a young physician struggling with mental illness with a winning strength and grace." <strong>-<em>IndieReader</em></strong></p><p>"Jones pulls back the curtain on physician well-being in this self-portrait." <strong><em>-BlueInk</em></strong><strong><em> Review</em></strong></p><p>"<em>Fallible</em> is a very interesting and inspiring read, putting across the biological, psychosocial, social, and spiritual sides of depression and anxiety." <strong>-<em>Authors Reading</em></strong></p><p>"Highly recommended" -<em><strong>Redford Township District Library</strong></em></p><p>"<em>Fallible</em> is a moving, often darkly funny memoir that carries the haunting ring of truth." -Carl Elliott, author of <em>White Coat, Black Hat</em> </p><p>"In this age of physician burnout and suicide, this affecting memoir reaffirms the importance of supporting the mental health of our doctors." -Sandeep Jauhar, author of <em>Intern: A Doctor's Initiation</em></p><br>
