<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>"A must-read"</em></p><p>--<strong>Julie Dussliere</strong>, Chief of Paralympic Sport, U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee</p><p>Nineteen people from across the globe, ranging in age from twenty to seventy-plus, tell their stories of living and thriving in diverse fields -- in sport, the arts, medicine, business and more. With refreshing frankness, they share their successes along with their struggles -- grit is the one characteristic they all have in common. These are not stories of people overcoming disability -- they're stories of people accommodating disability while pursuing their dreams. <em>Pure Grit</em> shines a light on boundless possibility whatever the individual challenge.</p><p><em>"</em>Pure Grit<em> highlights the lived experience of remarkable individuals, who collectively demonstrate that growing up with a disability brings strength, perspective, and resilience."</em></p><p>--<strong>Dr. Cheri Blauwe</strong>t, Assistant Professor of PM&R, Harvard Medical School</p><p><em>"An insightful collection of stories."</em></p><p>--<strong>Dr. Christine Imms</strong>, Apex Australia Chair of Neurodevelopment and Disability, University of Melbourne</p><p><em>"The stories in </em>Pure Grit<em> are a testament to human achievement no matter your ability. An extraordinary read."</em></p><p>--<strong>Casey Wasserman</strong>, Chairperson, Los Angeles 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games</p>
