醫學人文類書籍,今年看過最好的書,集醫學知識、種族、人文、生活等元素為一體。特彆是youtube上可以找到相關醫學案例的采訪,增加瞭閱讀體驗,太精彩瞭!
評分頂級專科醫生大概是人類當中最接近神的職業瞭!
評分和好多小夥伴一樣,看完Henry Marsh那本腦外之後來Stephen Westaby這邊看心外。之前想看的Under the Knife就是他的新作。頂級外科醫生們退休後轉行科普類暢銷書作者,人生也是很完滿瞭。
評分I will never confuse atrium with ventricle after reading the book. Lives are as fragile as they are strong. Wish there are more brave and excellent doctors as well as affordable life-saving technologies out there. And finally, cherish the best asset of yours since you are not a billionaire--your health.
評分推薦這本書,一個心髒外科醫生的自傳。
Steve Westaby is a celebrated world-famous heart surgeon who is renowned for being the first surgeon in history to fit a patient with a new type of artificial heart. During his 35-year career as a surgeon he worked at several of the UK’s top hospitals and performed over 11,000 heart operations. He won the Ray C. Fish Award for Scientific Achievement (2004). In 2004 Steve Westaby was featured in the BBC documentary Your Life in Their Hands, which is a long-running series on the subject of surgery.
An incredible memoir from one of the world’s most eminent heart surgeons and some of the most remarkable and poignant cases he’s worked on.
Grim Reaper sits on the heart surgeon’s shoulder. A slip of the hand and life ebbs away.
The balance between life and death is so delicate, and the heart surgeon walks that rope between the two. In the operating room there is no time for doubt. It is flesh, blood, rib-retractors and pumping the vital organ with your bare hand to squeeze the life back into it. An off-day can have dire consequences – this job has a steep learning curve, and the cost is measured in human life. Cardiac surgery is not for the faint of heart.
Professor Stephen Westaby took chances and pushed the boundaries of heart surgery. He saved hundreds of lives over the course of a thirty-five year career and now, in his astounding memoir, Westaby details some of his most remarkable and poignant cases – such as the baby who had suffered multiple heart attacks by six months old, a woman who lived the nightmare of locked-in syndrome, and a man whose life was powered by a battery for eight years.
A powerful, important and incredibly moving book, Fragile Lives offers an exceptional insight into the exhilarating and sometimes tragic world of heart surgery, and how it feels to hold someone’s life in your hands.
换手机号后就丢失了豆瓣账号,好了丢了也好,十几岁那会的矫情也真是看不下去哈哈,不看书评也不会想到来豆瓣。说回这本书,真是好读,有多好读呢?我中午读《宋徽宗》的时候也很喜欢,但是会困,一定要用一杯美式或者浓茶就一下。(没有任何说宋徽宗不好看的意思,也非常好不...
評分看理想老友计划赠送的书,物超所值。韦斯塔比医生不仅有高超的医术,文笔也不错。跌宕起伏惊心动魄的故事里掺进一两句玩笑,读起来非常受用。上一次读心外科的人文书籍是李清晨连载的心外传奇。 作为一个心外科医生,失败的手术肯定是多数的,但读者需要英雄,需要振奋人心的成...
評分病例总结书评第一的小姐姐已经总结的非常到位了。 我作为一名Perfusionist的学生,主要研究针对ECMO,看这本书还是饶有兴致的。只是全书16章,阅读到致谢后记住的故事不超过五个。 读书前就猜到应该会涉及ECMO的内容,但没想到直到最后才出现,而且还是不良结局,典型的时机把...
評分几乎是一边流着泪一边读完这本书的。韦斯塔比医生以他高超的医术和崇高的医德拯救病人的故事让我感慨,医生这个职业的重量。韦斯塔比医生有一段关于他外公去世的描写让我读了一遍又一遍: 起居室的门半开着,透出昏暗的灯光。我定睛朝里望去,只看见医生站在床边,手里拿着一只...
評分有如读一本心外入门手册。这样一本珍贵的书一定值得在读完后留下些什么,也值得在文字之外多了解些什么。 一、一些视频参考 1. Heart-lung machine心肺机。由体外系统接替心肺功能,使用高钾溶液停搏心脏后进行手术。 视频参考: 心肺机原理 2. 书中提到的部分案例在作者的TED ...
