About the Book

Paralyzed from the waist down, author Herb Tabak credits Craig's "no nonsense" rehabilitation philosophy as a major factor in the progress he has made to date towards recovery.

Tabak relates the range of adventures he experienced while an SCI patient at Craig Hospital's world-renowned spinal cord injury rehab program in plain, easy to understand language. In pointing out the reasons that make Craig Hospital unique, No Whining covers a diverse spectrum of topics, including:

  • The Reality of Spinal Cord Injury
  • The Craig Philosophy
  • Physical Therapy
  • Occupational Therapy
  • Therapeutic Recreation
  • Facing the Real World
  • Craig Research
  • Craig Graduates' Stories
  • Over 30 Photos/Illustrations
