The Prescription to My Recovery

Dennis Charney, MD, faces the man who tried to kill him during a highly publicized trial. Listen as he takes that courageous step and details the "resilient factors" he used to stay strong during this emotional stage in his recovery, including setting up a support system and letting go of anger. Dr. Charney is Anne and Joel Ehrenkranz Dean of the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and President for Academic Affairs for the Mount Sinai Health System. He is the co-author (with Steven Southwick, MD) of "Resilience: The Science of Mastering Life's Greatest Challenges."
