About the author#
Kevin J. Black, M.D.#
This book is heavily influenced by my experiences in three arenas, all of which involve getting to know people at the most important moments in their lives.
I’m a neuropsychiatrist. I have taken care of people with movement disorders for over 30 years, and I use brain imaging to study them. For more details you can check my work web page.
I’m a husband and father, and could not have asked for a better family.
My Christian faith has affected all the important decisions in my life. I was raised in a Modern Christian (Latter-day Saint) home, served as a bishop and as counselor to a stake president, and am still active in my congregation in the St. Louis area.
I should warn you: the ideas in this book are consistent with my experiences and belief, but do not necessarily represent the opinion of my employer, my family or my church.
