Do No Harm: Stories of Life, Death, and Brain Surgery
Description
Named a Notable Book of the Year by The New York Times Book Review and The
Washington Post What is it like to be a brain surgeon? How does it feel to
hold someone’s life in your hands, to cut into the stuff that creates thought,
feeling and reason? How do you live with the consequences of performing a
potentially lifesaving operation when it all goes wrong? With astonishing
compassion and candor, leading neurosurgeon Henry Marsh reveals the fierce joy
of operating, the profoundly moving triumphs, the harrowing disasters, the
haunting regrets and the moments of black humor that characterize a brain
surgeon’s life. Do No Harm provides unforgettable insight into the countless
human dramas that take place in a busy modern hospital. Above all, it is a
lesson in the need for hope when faced with life’s most difficult decisions.
