Description
ER has become the most succesful television series ever. Michael Crichton created the series from his own experiences as a medical doctor in the emergency rooms, operating rooms and wards of Massachusetts General Hospital.Five Patients is Michael Crichton's true account of the real life dramas so vividly portrayed in ER. A construction worker is seriously injured in a scaffold collapse; a middle-aged despatcher is brought in suffering from a fever that has reduced him to a delirious wreck; a young man nearly severs his hand in an accident; an airline traveller suffers chest pains; a mother of three is diagnosed with a life-threatening disease.
Written with the same honesty, suspense, technological detail and excitement that have made Jurassic Park and Disclosure No 1 bestsellers worldwide, Five Patients is an unputdownable account of life as it really is in a hospital. ISBN:9780099601111
