Abstract des Verlegers
Author writes about something he knows all too well, head concussions. After just 1 year actively wrestling for the WWE he was forced into early retirement due to post concussion syndrome. In his quest for answers about his condition he came upon a startling reality. The focus of this book is on football players and head concussions. The reality of how often it happens and the seriousness of not just short term effects, but long term as well are frightening. As a former football player both in high school and for Harvard University, author knows just how common these injuries are. Backed by many medical experts, author's revelations are startling.
