This book is very interesting and readable, in the early part of the book. One reads about how Dr. Frishman was encouraged from the time he was seven to become a physician, by his family doctor.
The struggles he went through as a child give a great deal of insight into the mind of this famous doctor. However, the insight disappears towards the end of Triumph Over Tragedy, where it becomes more of a chronological description of the jobs he held and the histories of the institutions.
It would have been much better if Frishman would have included some interesting stories in his later life. We really wanted to read about unusual cases or oddball students.
Though the second part of the book lacks the interesting insights that the first part of the book gives us, it still makes for some interesting reading. The book is an autobiography of William H. Frishman, whom we probably should have heard of, but never have until now.
Triumph Over Tragedy is the kind of book that makes one want to sit in a room with the man and let him tell you stories. We are sure there are many more fascinating parts of his life that he did not tell in this book. Like any good book, it leaves the reader wanting more.
