This is a book about what it's really like to become a doctor; how you walk into an E.R. one day having no idea what to do when someone is dying quickly in front of you, and four years later you not only know how to save lives, you know how to teach others to save them, how to improve lives, and how to value them. It's full of dramatic stories, some tragic and some triumphant, but it's also full of wisdom. Ofri learns to care for the whole person, not just to cure a disease.
