- $41.80
Product Description
A medley of over 1,500 aphorisms, quotations, and rules by surgeons and non-surgeons about surgery, surgeons, and anything which may be relevant to the practice of surgery. The book includes ancient as well as contemporary entries, formal and colloquial, pronounced by surgical giants or anonymous, only guided by the prerequisite that the entry appeals to the "surgical soul". Some readers may use the book as a source of surgical aphorisms and quotations to use in their lectures or manuscripts - others may read the book simply for entertainment or, as Moshe Schein suggests, to "contribute to your humanity and humility, perhaps even add maturity to your surgical personality and practice, and with a bit of luck increase your sense of surgical humor". An excellent gift for the surgeon who has everything - stock up for the upcoming holiday season!
