À propos de cet audio

With poignant insight and humor, Frank Vertosick, Jr., MD, describes some of the greatest challenges of his career, including a six-week-old infant with a tumor in her brain, a young man struck down in his prime by paraplegia, and a minister with a .22-caliber bullet lodged in his skull. Told through intimate portraits of Vertosick's patients and unsparing-yet-fascinatingly detailed descriptions of surgical procedures, When the Air Hits Your Brain - the culmination of decades spent struggling to learn an unforgiving craft - illuminates both the mysteries of the mind and the realities of the operating room.

Really liked it, well paced, gives good insight into medicine for non medical people, without being boring & drawn out. Also made good points while incorporating them into the story, without making it feel like a lesson or a lecture. Well written and interesting. I’m a fan of this type of book, collections of stories by different doctors, and this one was definitely one of my favourites so far. Definitely recommend

Really good!

2nd. Time around, this book still resonates. Very human together with very technical both of the Surgeon and the patient.

Spellbinding
