My Uncle a couple of years ago, pressed it upon me to read this book... Im not a fan of reading but when i opened this book, i just couldnt stop readng it! GREAT BOOK!!! ( )I loved this book. absolutely, one of the best told stories! Great book!! Gifted Hands is like the biography of a v. well-known and well-respected neurosurgeon, Ben Carson. We read this in MD Camp. Anyway it's basically about his life and is a pretty good book. It also has some surgeries that he did that were really important. At the end of the book he has a conclusion that is like his outlook, or philosophy on life, which is THINK BIG. I think i can remember what they all stand for T: Talent, Time-management H: Hope I: Insight N: Nice K: Knowledge B: Books I: In-depth learning G: God So that's a nice thingy. This book is really inspiring. The only thing I thought that was wrong with it was that you could TOTALLY tell it wasn't written by a writer (even though i think he did get help writing it). There are grammar mistakes... and the writing style and structure are really weird. Also he uses the word niggle way too much. That is a weird word. This is one of my all-time favorite books! I first read it as a teen, and was very inspired! You can do anything you put your mind to, if only you have the right support! Highly recommended! no reviews | add a review
