Roger Rees, Emeritus Professor of Disability Studies and Research at Flinders University, has spent 25 years involved in the rehabilitation and education of people with brain injury, and his newly published memoir focuses squarely on the people he has met and "helped to help". Out of Calamity: Stories of Trauma Survivors relates the often extraordinary courage and resilience shown by the people - often sufferers of severe neurological trauma - whom Professor Rees has assisted during his career.
