I really enjoyed this. Took me a little while to get into it, but once I did, I really liked all it covered - from MJF's childhood and learning about his family, to his challenges with not only Parkinson's, but dealing with becoming "richandfamous," alcoholism, and other areas. The way he describes his marriage with Tracy and their family makes the reader see how special their relationship is. Educating on more than one level.

Very engaging book, even more so if you have personal experience with PD. An interesting look at life as a celebrity and a fascinating story of Micheal's journey back to reality, through the vehicle of PD. Once you read the book, you will think about it for days afterward. The chapter about his surgery is especially riveting. (I dare you to read it without gasping.) Definitely a captivating and thoughtful book. (And I am not much for biographies!) :-)

I thoroughly enjoyed Michael J. Fox's memoir. His writing is very accessible and enjoyable. He writes with honesty and frankness. One can learn a bit about Parkinson's Disease through his experience.

This is a well written memoir called "Lucky Man'by Michael J. Fox. It could have been titled "Brave Man". He writes a very human story and it is well worth reading.
