Description
This is the astonishing story of one woman's fight to become a surgeon. Elizabeth Morgan began her training at 20 and finished when she was 31. Here is just a selection of the critical reaction to her unique and important account:
'A superb job...an inside view of medical education, of hospital practices, of physicians as professionals and human beings, of the pleasures and pains of the medical life' 17
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
'What makes the book remarkable is her almost total recall of so many vivid incidents; the reader is indeed inside the operating room, meeting doctors and nurses as well as patients... The author's compassion illumines dark situations and she proves herself both a doctor and an excellent author on each page'
