Oh, dear, poor, poor Yahoo Answerer, Hilarie Burton. Here you go to all that trouble to help a poor soul who expects someone else to do their homework for them. And so, Hilarie, you, out of the kindness of your heart, sit down, read the book and write a wonderful review of the book. We know every word is yours because there are no quotation marks, no websites and no credit given for the piece. Besides, who would be foolish enough to copy and paste something on the web and turn it in as your original homework? So here, Hilarie, after you do all that hard work, along comes Catherine Pulsifier, AND STEALS YOUR WORK! Hard to believe, but Catherine Pulsifier has copied your book review, word for word. What kind of person would do that?

Between a Rock and a Hard Place
Written by Aron Ralston
Reviewed by Catherine Pulsifer

We all find ourselves in situations that at times seem hopeless. And, we all have the choice to do nothing or take action. In this book, Between a Rock and a Hard Place, Aron Ralston finds himself in a life or death situation, and ends up taking the drastic action of amputating his right arm. He could have given up, he could have felt sorry for himself, but he kept focused on freeing himself.

This is a true story of a man who lives his passion of mountain climbing and hiking. The story tells of his experience of being trapped in a canyon for six days, eventually running out of food and more importantly, water. The most amazing part of this book is reading Aron's thoughts. Close to dying, he stayed focused on trying to find ways to free himself. He consistently kept taking action to solve the situation that he was in. To quote from the book, "Everything else - the pain, the thoughts of rescue, the accident itself-recedes. I'm taking action."

With his arm trapped, he thought of other ways to perform the things that he needed to do. He recalled a TV program of a man who had no hands and used his feet to pick up items. That memory inspired him to use his feet to retrieve his keys that fell into a crack.

Once rescued, Aron starts the road to recovery which is a difficult one. But, even with everything he was through, he had no regrets about the choices he made. He learned much and has moved on with his life.

To quote Aron,
"When we find inspiration, we need to take action for ourselves and for our communities. Even if it means making a hard choice, or cutting out something and leaving it in your past."
His story is an inspirational one that reinforces our power of choice! It is a story of a person with a passion, and his actions to follow that passion."

Hilarie, maybe you should sue Catherine Pulsifier. After all, someone who engages in plagiarism and tries to pass off someone else's work as their own, is a very dishonest person. And should lose all credibility with everyone.

Sorry to tell you but you have to expose yourself to the material. The best bet for you right now is to get the audio version. You'll absorb the information and be able to multitask while you listen.
