"The Choice is a gift to humanity. One of those rare and eternal
stories that you don't want to end and that leave you forever
changed. Dr. Eger's life reveals our capacity to transcend even the
greatest of horrors and to use that suffering for the benefit of
others. She has found true freedom and forgiveness and shows us how
we can as well."--Desmond Tutu, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate
"I'll be forever changed by Dr. Eger's story...The Choice is a
reminder of what courage looks like in the worst of times and that
we all have the ability to pay attention to what we've lost, or to
pay attention to what we still have."--Oprah Winfrey
"This book is partly a memoir and partly a guide to processing
trauma. Eger was only sixteen years old when she and her family got
sent to Auschwitz. After surviving unbelievable horrors, she moved
to the United States and became a therapist. Her unique background
gives her amazing insight, and I think many people will find
comfort right now from her suggestions on how to handle difficult
situations." --Bill Gates
