Bøker av Samer Nashef

Pre-eminent surgeon Nashef tells stories of heart surgery across the globe, relating these to the wider discussion of the public bid for health and the issues overcome heroically but precariously by the NHS.

When a surgeon nowadays opens up a ribcage and mends a heart, it remains something of a miracle, even if, to some, it is merely plumbing. This book demonstrates to its reader (and prospective patient) many revelations, such as the paradox at the heart of the cardiac surgeon's craft.
