Summary: Gifted Hands: An autobiography by Ben Carson
Comment: Gifted Hands, the inspiring transformation of Ben Carson, was a great autobiography! As he faced terrible times during his rough childhood years, he still managed to become successful.

Ben Carson was a troublesome juvenile growing up in a terrible neighborhood. He did not excel in school and therefore battled an anger problem which almost caused his best friend's life. His lack of self-control always led him into a rage that would hurt others as well as himself both physically and emotionally. Carson later realized that he had a serious problem and wanted to change. He decided to transform from a immature angry boy into an unique man that impacts other peoples lives.

This novel revealed an interesting zeal of success and motivation that inspires readers of all ages. It led to having hope, never giving up, and striving to become the individual that God wants you to become.

Dr. Carson suceeded and now is a brain seargeant at Johns Hopkins Hospitol in Baltimore, Maryland. One of the most inspiring surgeries he ever performed was on separating simese-twins who were joined at the head. Dr. Carson also speaks to young men and women to encourage them to turn their lives around to make something of themselves. After this breathtaking autobiography, Carson remains one of the most highly respected and intriguing African-Americans in the history of America. I actually had the opportunity to meet Dr. Carson at Johns Hopkins one day while visiting my father when he was being hospitalized there. After that short time talking with him, I could already begin to admire him. This book,Gifted Hands will change any readers life for the better.

Summary: A Real Story in an Excellent Book!
Comment: Gifted Hands is not a fairy tale; it's the real story of an American black child who grew up in Detroit during the 60s. This book is Carson's autobiography, and he narrates how he overcomes many defiant situations in his childhood, and his teenager years. He becomes one of the most important neurosurgeons in the world. The book is easy to read, besides the fact that it hitches the interest through the story, his life, struggles and successes. During the reading I was able to feel Ben Carson feelings, even though he is an internationally recognized surgeon, whose honesty, religiosity and simplicity are still genuine. He shares magically his clues to get a successful life. Through the reading, my respect for Ben grew until it became admiration. This book shows how dreams become true by working and studying hard. I highly recommend it. I'm sure this book could even change your life as it has done with mine!

Summary: A must read for all ages
Comment: This is truly a life-changing book. Read about Ben Carson's life and the amazing things that God does through him. A quick and easy read that I would recommend to everyone, particularly youngsters looking for direction in their lives. You will cry, laugh and praise God for the power of prayer.
