Description
|
|
|
|
Like all doctors, surgeon Sherwin Nuland collects stories from his practice—both his own and those of other medical professionals he has worked with and admires. The National Book Award–winning author of How We Die, Nuland here gives us "The Surgeon's Tale," "The Pediatrician's Tale," "The Anesthesiologist's Tale," and 18 other remarkable stories in a book filled with the lessons of humanity. Many describe the dynamics of the doctor-patient relationship, while others consider the relationship between medical mentors and their students, vital to perpetuating medical knowledge, judgment, and character.
