Island Practice
New York Times reporter Pam Belluck has expanded a piece she wrote about Dr. Lepore five years ago, researching her subject and the lesser known edges of our island in vivid, sometimes painful, detail.

This is the book everyone will be talking about this summer. Click here or on the picture above for more details, and join us tomorrow evening for what promises to be a fascinating inside glimpse of the book and its genesis.

Hardcover $25.99

Call MBC at 508-228-1080 for personalized copies signed by Dr. Lepore.
