About the Book

Praise for Which Reminds Me,… More delightful stories from Dr. Jim Weber, retired surgeon, turned yoga doc! We are invited to celebrate with him a variety of unusual occurrences: celebrity encounters, swim meets, “copping out,” hairy decision making, James Joyce agonistes, the etiquette expert off duty. And much more. Mary Starkebaum, M.D., Family Practitioner, International humanitarian Reading your vignettes as I wrestle with my own memoir was a shock to my system. I felt as though I was moving from the twilight of my writing into a sun-drenched frolic. Moment after moment, the reader hears the request: “Another helping of life, please.” Further, there is also something for the mathematician that I happen to be. Each of the four sections has nine vignettes for a total of thirty-six—a lot of perfect squares. Mel Currie, Ph.D., Former Chief of CryptographIc Design at NSA Jim’s writing draws us all in more closely, like his yoga classes, creating a sense of community.

About the Author

Dr. Weber has lived for so long in the Pacific Northwest that he has nearly forgotten his roots as a New Yorker. He reinvented himself as a yoga teacher, following three decades as a general and bariatric surgeon. All the while, he has maintained a strong commitment to writing. His output to date includes: the how-to books, Overcoming Obesity Through Weight Loss Surgery and The Complete Idiots Guide to Etiquette Fast Track; the gently humorous collection of vignettes, Joie de Vivre, As I See It; and his autobiography, Cutting Out: The Making and Unmaking of a Surgeon. He regards this, his latest book, as a worthy successor to Joie de Vivre and hopes that you will agree.
