Fox’s current biography picks up where his 2002 book, Lucky Man left off. The reader gets an inside view of Fox’s eighteen year battle with his neurological disorder, Parkinson’s disease, and his efforts to form the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research.The tone is very upbeat, despite the description of the detailed political process the actor took to be able to create an environment for research for neurological patients. Detailed descriptions of Michael’s daily medical regime, intense personal limitations, and love for his family are sprinkled throughout along with stories of meeting Lance Armstrong, Muhammad Ali, and our new President.
If you enjoy stories of success in the midst of adversity or enjoy a good, solid read about the inner workings of political campaigns and what makes them tick, Fox’s new book is for you.
