How New York City Saved My Life

Aug. 4, 2011 - PRLog -- The remarkable memoir How New York City Saved My Life takes an in-depth look at the role society plays in shaping the course of one’s life. In this compelling and important story, the author addresses significant issues about the human condition. Its persuasive elements of empathy and caring touch the heart and nurture our desire to leave this world better than we found it.

Humorous and entertaining, yet insightful and profound, this memoir addresses the topics of health and religion, and social issues such as immigration and racism.  This work also offers seminal illumination into issues of institutionalization and systemization run amok, and the plight of the human condition when “group think” and Weberian Bureaucracy overshadow meeting the needs of the poor, the downtrodden, the infirm, and the vulnerable.

It is hoped this text will be widely read and used in academic training and institutional policy-making settings. Of particular importance is the concept that society can profoundly shape and influence individual lives in many unexpected ways. People everywhere need to examine the roles they
play in this process, be it as parents, educators, or policy makers, etc.
