What is it like to be a brain surgeon? How does it feel to hold someone's life in your hands, to cut into the stuff that creates thought, feeling, and reason? How do you live with the consequences of performing a potentially lifesaving operation when it all goes wrong?
In neurosurgery, more than in any other branch of medicine, the doctor's oath to "do no harm" holds a bitter irony. Operations on the brain carry grave risks. Every day, leading neurosurgeon Henry Marsh must make agonizing decisions, often in the face of great urgency and uncertainty.
If you believe that brain surgery is a precise and exquisite craft, practiced by calm and detached doctors, this gripping, brutally honest account will make you think again. With astonishing compassion and candor, Marsh reveals the fierce joy of operating, the profoundly moving triumphs, the harrowing disasters, the haunting regrets, and the moments of black humor that characterize a brain surgeon's life.
Do No Harm provides unforgettable insight into the countless human dramas that take place in a busy modern hospital. Above all, it is a lesson in the need for hope when faced with life's most difficult decisions.

##讲述疾病与死亡的书是那么迷人，让我重拾了当初看LGBT类作品的那种激情。可惜平权再看早已没有处理生死那样让人颤栗。让我印象最深的是作者记录母亲癌症弥留的那几天，搬回自己的家，躺在床上。他每早来看她，她便说：“活着呢”也说她很幸福。她的儿女陪在身边，好友在餐桌前聚，说着她的平生……直到最后一刻，她都未失智。作者，作为握了半生手术刀的医生，羡慕起这种的死亡。 我也羡慕。
评分##这是一位英国著名神经外科医生的行医笔记。话说作者是二十一岁弃文从医的耶，那不是和我现在的年纪一样嘛？如果我想转行当医生是不是也还来得及( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)不过当医生要接触那些开颅剖脑的血腥手术，天天面对疾病与死亡，偶尔手术失误时遭受内心自责与病患家属责备的双重煎熬，甚至还要背这么多又长又臭的医学词汇……还是算了吧
评分作者说他牛津ppe出身突然就有那种posh eton boy stereotype了，去乌克兰那里写得很发展落后地区，浑身一种欧洲老牌绅士的感觉（但真正很renowned了之后就不令人讨厌反而很敬畏

评分##Extreeemely well written. Objective, brutally honest, cynical yet full of empathy. 脑科医生故事集，作者一个牛津PPE posh boy，20几岁弃笔从医。
评分##“The operating is the easy part, you know,’ he said. ‘By my age you realize that the difficulties are all to do with the decision-making.” “Life without hope is hopelessly difficult but at the end hope can so easily make fools of us all.”"Great surgeons tend to have bad memories."
