(Madison) The award-winning book, White Coat Wisdom, by Stephen J. Busalacchi, will be available as an unabridged audiobook on March 15. It can be purchased via www.whitecoatwisdom.com, as an mp3 download. (Media may request a free download for review at info@apollosvoice.com).
The author is a former public radio medical reporter, who has narrated the 23-hour unabridged audiobook, which chronicles the noteworthy careers several dozen extraordinary Wisconsin physicians.
White Coat Wisdom, the hardcover book, was initially released in 2008 and has since earned several national book honors (Eric Hoffer Award, Indie Book Awards and Montaigne Medal finalist), in addition to the endorsement of former US Surgeon General C. Everett Koop, MD.
Most recently, the book received a 5-Star review from Cynthia Hartline, of LibraryThing:
“[The] ‘oral history’ is engaging in every case. Unlike ‘news-magazine’ television shows, where the interviewer’s goal seems to be to phrase questions in order to push their own agenda and to hear their own voice, with the physician guest barely getting a word in edge-wise, Mr. Busalacchi’s interview style is a light touch of questions, and while letting them speak as they will, their very human side emerges. His engagement with his subjects has a very natural cadence.”
