The Good Doctor is Naked, Robert Hardy Barnes, MD
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
What a vital message! "The Good Doctor is Naked" is Bob Barnes' personal story; but for me this book is so much more. For me, it speaks of what I have come to believe: I believe that if we, as a society, are to save ourselves from the terribly sad and neurotic existence we lead, we must re-define the word success. Here is a medical doctor who has achieved it all; society would say, "This guy made it... big!" I say that Bob Barnes has "made it...big",too. But I say it for different reasons: I say it because he has dared to be vulnerable, I say it because he has dared to be honest, I say it because he has dared to challenge his own definition of the word "success." Bob Barnes is saying to me that he could not find personal success until the "Real Bob Barnes" stood up. He is saying to me that his achievements stand; but that he is not the measure of his achievements. He is saying to me that he is the measure of his self knowledge, the measure of his self love, the measure of his honesty, the measure of his empathy and the measure of his service to his fellow man. What a wonderful definition of success. Louise Pluymen
