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.

##“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."
评分##乌克兰小女孩的故事是我感觉最难过的....
评分##长年面对死与生的脑外科医生的笔记和内心独白，故事讲得精彩，同时也带出了发人深省的制度、道德甚至是哲学问题，好看
评分##相当坦诚了
评分##手术细节写得非常详细，什么钻开一个孔，骨头里面凹凸不平的地方锉平什么的，心理承受力不够恐怕还看不下去，但是好想翻开解剖图鉴。感谢现代医学，不然我也不可能活到现在，以及，anaesthetists这个单词真的好难读。
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##改天写一篇读后感吧。严重推荐。
评分##还挺好看的，不过最大的感想大概是，手术风险真是很大啊！
评分##神经外科医生对自己职业生涯的回顾。一些成功的病例让人雀跃。作者也很坦诚地细数了自己的失误，以及作为医生很多时候的难以避免的无能力为。医生要对病人怀有同理心，但也要保持适当的距离感以保护医者自身作为一个人的脆弱。
