The Surgeon

The Surgeon
- A novel about a day in the life of a surgeon.
"A novel about what it is like to be a surgeon; what it is that drives a man to sacrifice the prime years of his life in pursuit of training for a profession that is revered and misunderstood. You will accompany a thoracic surgeon on a journey where he hides the truth from a patient who will die within a week of inoperable cancer; you will feel his elevation at having succeeded in curing a young boy of a serious prenatal malformation; you will look on as he faces the acid test of a grueling three-hour operation during which, his knowledge and skills race against the minute hand of the operating room clock." Green cloth over board with black cloth binding with silver lettering on spine, 245 pages. Dustjacket is enclosed in mylar overlay taped to cover. Front and back hinges have been reinforced with library tape. Library notations/stamps inside front cover, and on dedication page. First endpaper has been cut out where cardholder was attached.
