"Rush" is a compelling biography that illuminates the life of Dr. Benjamin Rush, a pivotal figure among America's Founding Fathers, known for his revolutionary contributions to medicine and social reform. By age thirty, Rush had signed the Declaration of Independence, mentored under Benjamin Franklin, and became a trusted adviser to key leaders, all while advocating for mental health treatment, abolition of slavery, and equality across various demographics. This engaging narrative reestablishes Rush as a visionary and a complex character whose legacy continues to influence modern society. With praise from notable publications, the book unfolds the significance of a man whose brilliance has often been overlooked.
