This book is a tribute to all the people who were part of the rehabilitation of the men who had suffered severe head injuries during WWII. The doctors, nurses, therapists and staff who were all part of the life at Headington Hill Hall during those years. The contribution these people made have had profound affect on future generation, not least of all a large part of my childhood. My father should be recognized for his significant role inventing the Oxford Lift to aid in the men's care in hospital and at home. What was started in the way of treatment, was essential for the eventual well being of future generations of people suffering from severe head injuries, it has set the standard for rehab in the following decades.
