Dr. Morey's bio: "Doctor Jon Morey’s career in the health sciences began in January 1988 when he stepped into the Korean Hapkido Academy. Hapkido, he quickly discovered, differed from most other martial arts, emphasizing the practice of joint locking and throws in addition to the more common milieu of kicks and punches.
"Dr. Morey became fascinated with Human Anatomy and the vulnerabilities of the body for self-defense, earning a 5th degree black belt in the process; but he wanted to understand more about how this information could be used in the promotion of health as well. This desire led Dr. Morey back to school where he graduated from the National University of Health Sciences with degrees in Chiropractic Medicine and Human Physiology. Doctor Morey also holds a B.A. in Anthropology and a B.S. in Human Biology both from the University of Michigan.
"After becoming a licensed and practicing Chiropractic Physician, Dr. Morey has continued his quest for improved patient health. One of the innovations he has incorporated into his clinic is MovNat®. Dr. Morey is a Movnat Master Trainer.
"MovNat®, is a physical education and fitness system based on the full range of natural human movements that prepare one to meet the contextual demands of daily life. MovNat® is a holistic system that embraces all age groups and physical abilities with instruction in all three Human Movement Domains; Locomotives, Manipulatives, and Combatives.
"Dr. Morey lives in Flushing, Michigan, with his wife Kerry Ann, and their four sons. He considers his marriage and his boys his most amazing accomplishments in a life filled with achievement. He currently practices Chiropractic medicine and teaches MovNat® at his clinic located in Flint, Michigan.
"In addition, he also teaches Human Anatomy and biology classes at a major Michigan University, a local Hospital and several local high schools. In his spare time, he explores the woods in Michigan ‘s north country teaching his Uncivilized Vitality™, program of Health & Happiness Optimization, developed in large part through Dr. Morey’s experiences with his Asperger’s experiences in Nature and his study of Anthropology."

8. Man’s Search For Meaning by Victor Frankl
From the description on Amazon: "Viktor Frankl’s riveting account of his time in the Nazi concentration camps, and his insightful exploration of the human will to find meaning in spite of the worst adversity, has offered solace and guidance to generations of readers since it was first published in 1946. At the heart of Frankl’s theory of logotherapy (from the Greek word for “meaning”) is a conviction that the primary human drive is not pleasure, as Freud maintained, but rather the discovery and pursuit of what the individual finds meaningful."

9. Deep Survival: Who Lives, Who Dies, and Why by Laurence Gonzalez
From the description on Amazon: "Laurence Gonzales’s bestselling Deep Survival has helped save lives from the deepest wildernesses, just as it has improved readers’ everyday lives. Its mix of adventure narrative, survival science, and practical advice has inspired everyone from business leaders to military officers, educators, and psychiatric professionals on how to take control of stress, learn to assess risk, and make better decisions under pressure."

10. The Autism Revolution: Whole-Body Strategies for Making Life All It Can Be by Dr. Martha Herbert and Karen Weintraub
"After years of treating patients and analyzing scientific data, Harvard Medical School researcher and clinician Dr. Martha Herbert offers a revolutionary new view of autism and a transformative strategy for dealing with it. Autism, she concludes, is not a hardwired impairment programmed into a child’s genes and destined to remain fixed forever. Instead, it is the result of a cascade of events, many seemingly minor." (That is epigenetic factors are relevant.)
