...remarkable story of a stroke survivor who made his voice heard about the devastating dangers of plutonium aboard space shuttles.
Book Description
Merry-Go-Sorry is the bittersweet biography of internationally known environmental scientist and plutonium expert, Richard G. Cuddihy. A stroke at forty eight brought irrevocable changes to his life. He was a principal member of the NASA Safety Review Panel for the Galileo Space Mission and, because of his opposition to the use of plutonium aboard the shuttle, he was called the 'lone dissenter' on the panel by Time Magazine. This story intertwines his life as a stroke survivor and as an advocate for human life and the environment. "It is time the American people hear the true story and make their voices heard." All this is written by a courageous man who has aphasia and still makes his voice heard. His gentle heart in dealing with other stroke survivors is noteworthy.
