Open Heart: A Cardiac Surgeon's Stories of Life and Death on the Operating Table by Stephen Westaby
5.0
Borrowed this one from the local library.
Quite quite enjoyable.
I enjoy reading about advancements in medicine - and medicine in general. While the author does come off as a bit boastful at times - the successes are his, but the failures are someone else's fault in many cases - it gives a great view into open heart surgery, and what goes on - as well as funding limitations.
Highly recommended for anyone in the medical field - or that just have an interest.
