Thoughts on Fire, Dr. Frank McCluskey, 2004
Volunteer firefighters - they can walk through fire; they would sacrifice their own lives to save yours.
In the tradition of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Thoughts on Fire is a meditation on how to live a life that matters. Drawing on his dual life as a philosophy professor and firefighter, "Dr. Frank" begins a journey not just into the fire, but inside himself.
The lessons of this voyage are not just about axes and hoses but hope, forgiveness and love.
