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?
In neurosurgery, more than in any other branch of medicine, the doctor's oath to "do no harm" holds a bitter irony. Operations on the brain carry grave risks. Every day, leading neurosurgeon Henry Marsh must make agonizing decisions, often in the face of great urgency and uncertainty.
If you believe that brain surgery is a precise and exquisite craft, practiced by calm and detached doctors, this gripping, brutally honest account will make you think again. With astonishing compassion and candor, 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.

評分 評分 評分亨利·馬什是全球知名的神經外科醫生,在過去30年的時間裏為數百名腦疾患者實施開顱手術。這本《醫生的抉擇》就是以其親身經曆和獨特視角再現瞭過去30年間英國醫學從業者,特彆是神經外科醫生的工作性質和職業變遷。全書共分為25章,每章大多以一種神經外科疾病開篇,其中尤以...
評分##手術細節寫得非常詳細,什麼鑽開一個孔,骨頭裏麵凹凸不平的地方銼平什麼的,心理承受力不夠恐怕還看不下去,但是好想翻開解剖圖鑒。感謝現代醫學,不然我也不可能活到現在,以及,anaesthetists這個單詞真的好難讀。
