Kogda smert' stanovitsia zhizn'iu. Budni vracha-transplantologa - Mezrich D.

Joshua Mezrich sheds light on one of the most important, surprising and awe-giving advances of modern medicine: human-to-human organ transplantation. In this deeply personal and extraordinarily moving book, he covers the amazing field of transplantation that allows miracles to happen every day, and talks about the incredible doctors, donors and patients who are at the center of this practically unimaginable world.
The author invites us to the operating room and demonstrates the amazing process of organ transplantation: an exquisite but dynamic dance that requires a clear distribution of time, impressive skills and sometimes creative improvisation. Most doctors struggle with death, but transplant surgeons benefit from death. Mezrich talks about how grateful he is for the privilege of being part of the incredible exchange between the living and the dead.
