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.
用户评价
##这本书是一名神经外科医生写的自己的故事。各种病人，各种手术，各种与人交流，有成功有失败，有激动也有无奈。虽然自己不是医生，但有很多的东西让人引起共鸣。非常推荐……
评分 评分作者说他牛津ppe出身突然就有那种posh eton boy stereotype了，去乌克兰那里写得很发展落后地区，浑身一种欧洲老牌绅士的感觉（但真正很renowned了之后就不令人讨厌反而很敬畏
评分 评分##神经外科医生对自己职业生涯的回顾。一些成功的病例让人雀跃。作者也很坦诚地细数了自己的失误，以及作为医生很多时候的难以避免的无能力为。医生要对病人怀有同理心，但也要保持适当的距离感以保护医者自身作为一个人的脆弱。
评分 评分 评分 评分##一開始當作（又一本）神外故事會看，但中段開始基調逐漸改變，作者開心見誠地談論自己的失敗，剖析自己遇到無法救治的病人或者手術失敗的病例時的所思所想，還反覆吐槽NHS管理得如何官僚死板，讓普通人一窺醫生這一職業背後的壓力和煩惱。 印象比較深刻的章節，一是作者自述其公學牛津drop out gap完回校再轉行的游刃有餘白人中產人生（……），二是官僚制度無論在蘇聯解體後的烏克蘭還是在倫敦都死死把控住治病救人的醫院，三是作者反思自己年輕時因自大而手術失敗、使病人成爲植物人，印象最爲深刻的四則是作者照料臨終母親、以及散見於各章節的對死亡的思考。看完很强烈的一個感受是，in Cantonese，人命真係好化學……
