Dare to Care is a book about the magic of medicine and life. Patients long for caring and connection when they are ill, and the doctors who come to this procession full of care and compassion often leave feeling drained and diluted as human beings because they forget who they are. In this book, you will be reminded that essential harmony and well-being is your natural state, and what you have been looking for in any doctor you have sought. It offers an invitation to join a new bandwidth of caring, intuition, holism, and love, to ride the waves of living beyond the norm.

Written as letters to his goddaughter, Hannah, a resident physician, Dr. Bonhoeffer imparts wisdom, experience, and importantly, his compassion and love for not only his goddaughter but for all of us. Arjuna Ardagh adds his wisdom throughout the book, using his coaching skills to help us understand from other perspectives.  Each letter (chapter) offers insight into the wisdom that Dr. Bonhoeffer has learned throughout his years of helping patients and that he wants to share with Hannah as well as us, the reader.

Dare to Care will help invigorate the love of patients and medicine for all who read it.
