Von der hinteren Coverseite
The entire world knows Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly from Back to the Future and through his other film and TV work including The Good Wife and Curb Your Enthusiasm, but since being diagnosed with Parkinson's in 1991, when he was just twenty-nine, Michael has also been equally involved in raising global awareness of the disease and helping to find a cure through The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.
In his new memoir No Time Like the Future: An Optimist Considers Mortality, Michael shares personal stories and observations about illness and health, ageing, the strength of family and friends, and how our perceptions about time affect the way we approach mortality. Thoughtful and moving, but with his trademark sense of humour, Michael's reflects on a recent period of particularly challenging medical madness. Not only was he dealing with the daily negotiations that Parkinson's involved, but he also suffered from a spinal cord issue that required him to learn how to walk again. He remained undaunted, until a devastating fall nearly caused him to ditch his trademark optimism and 'get out of the lemonade business altogether.'
Does he make it all the way back? Read on . . .

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 'The book is great: moving but also properly funny.' Hadley Freeman, The Guardian 'A memoir with an unusual sense of purpose. . . pithy, highly readable' The Times The entire world knows Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly, the teenage sidekick of Doc Brown in Back to the Future. His two previous bestselling memoirs, Lucky Man and Always Looking Up, dealt with how he came to terms with the illness, all the while exhibiting his iconic optimism. In No Time Like the Future: An Optimist Considers Mortality, Michael shares personal stories and observations about illness and health, ageing, the strength of family and friends, and how our perceptions about time affect the way we approach mortality. Thoughtful and moving, but with Fox's trademark sense of humour, his book provides a vehicle for reflection about our lives, our loves, and our losses. Running through the narrative is the drama of the medical madness Fox recently experienced, that included his daily negotiations with the Parkinson's disease he's had since 1991, and a spinal cord issue that necessitated immediate surgery. His challenge to learn how to walk again, only to suffer a devastating fall, nearly caused him to ditch his trademark optimism and "get out of the lemonade business altogether." Does he make it all of the way back? Read the book. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
