44 Years on the Frontline of Medicine

The tales here are rendered with great detail, covering years when the medical community saw many changes in treatment and tools. Some of the stories are grim, occasionally ending in death, sometimes due to a medical error. But there are plenty of light moments, too, and Andrews manages a candid, matter-of-fact tone that aptly fits each tale; he is sympathetic without being sentimental, humorous without being silly. He also does a fine job of revealing the behind-the scenes personalities and practices in a medical facility, while offering a perspective that patients dont often experience. Andrews does a solid job of weaving the narrative thread in an engaging voice that invites the reader to curl up for a good read. In short, 44 Years on the Front Line of Medicine is likely to please a wide audience.
