Produktbeschreibung
Dr. Harry Rein has lived an extraordinary life. He has been a refugee, soldier, husband, father, doctor, lawyer, and judge, and to the best of his knowledge, the only doctor-lawyer-judge in the United States. His path begins when he boards the last train out of Austria after Hitler's annexation, followed by remaining one step ahead of destruction for the next year. Then comes a denial of entry into the United States due to quotas and poverty, followed by eventual admission three years later. "Angels" then enter his life and those of his family, allowing them to become meaningful citizens in the United States. These episodes from his inspiring journey discuss the ambition, attitude, kindnesses, rewards, and punishment he experiences with the many people he encounters along the way who lift him to higher levels of practice within each of his three professions. From Stethoscope to Gavel is the true story of an ordinary man from a humble background whose optimism and generosity in the face of crushing hardships will challenge, encourage, and motivate generations to come.
Autorenporträt
Dr. Harry Rein, the first doctor, lawyer, and judge to practice all three professions at the same time, escaped from the Nazis, was a refugee for many years, and with good fortune landed in the United States. Rein was one of the first Board Certified family practitioners in Florida in 1960. He practiced for twenty years, then became a medical malpractice lawyer, reviewing over 15,000 events and participating in over three hundred trials. His involvement in such cases was controversial in the 1970s, newsworthy in the 1980s, and has since gone on to be used as teaching guides. After being sworn into the Supreme Court of the United States, he was enlisted into the Inns of Court and started the Inns of Court in the Orlando, Central Florida area. Rein was later appointed as a part-time judge with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and selected to attend the Army War College.
