Confessions of a knife

Merging art and religion with science, these largely autobiographical essays delve deeply into the emotional territory of medicine commonly avoided by other writers. This collection utilizes the physical body as a means to explore the human mind and soul. Never hesitant to admit his own frailties, the author draws on his experiences as a surgeon with integrity and wit, allowing readers a first-hand glimpse into the medical world.
