Linda Carroll and David Rosner have a book called Concussion Crisis: Anatomy of a Silent Epidemic, and they’re interviewed about it at the website of The Atlantic. See http://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2011/09/how-to-fix-sports-concussion-crisis/245733/#.ToH1HQ7dioU.email.
I love this take in an email from author-blogger Matt Chaney (whose longer writings everyone can follow at http://blog.4wallspublishing.com/):
Latest cutting-edge authors stay stepping to establishment line, playing same old song. It’s like, Oh, you can no longerwatch football, but it’s “fixable” for other people?
