More Description Learning, Coping, Living sensitively describes a compelling struggle against anxiety dating back to early childhood. Once the author was seen as "nervous" by physicians and family and increasing neurological symptoms were mischaracterized misfiled. The book chronicles the author's growing confidence, self-esteem and assertiveness, which were keys that unlocked the correct diagnosis and treatment of her dystonia. Bette Levine then took one more forward step into advocacy. Advocacy takes others along a shared path and replaces helplessness with knowledge and power. This book is part of that advocacy and will inspire anyone coping with physical or emotional adversity. Joyce S. Garber, M.D.
