City of One: A Memoir

A fascinating study of a woman who suffered the loss of both parents as a pre-adolescent, was placed in foster care but with help from social programs, went to college, and became a psychiatrist. Using her own life and her continuing psychotherapy as the foundation of the book, her story was better than fiction. I enjoyed seeing her struggles turn into eventual progress and success.
