When The Air Hits Your Brain
Chronicles the author's evolution from naive and ambitious young houseman to world-class neurosurgeon. This book describes some of the challenges of the author's career, including a six-week-old infant with a tumour in her brain, a young man struck down in his prime by paraplegia and a clergyman with a.22-caliber bullet lodged in his skull.
