Book 2. Neither Sun nor Death. From the diaries of a neurosurgeon

Henry Marsh is not afraid to admit that it is extremely difficult for a doctor to be honest, extremely painful to talk about his mistakes. His new book Neither Sun nor Death. From the Diaries of a Neurosurgeon is an extremely personal memoir that impresses with its frankness, wisdom and literary skill.

At the end of his almost forty-year medical career, the author of the bestselling book Stories of Life, Death, and Neurosurgery reflects on the meaning of human existence, the essence of a doctor's work, the difficulties of the profession, and what a desperate desire to prolong a patient's life at any cost can do.

Henry Marsh is a wonderful conversationalist: cases from his surgical practice in Britain, Nepal, and Ukraine are interspersed with vivid and heartbreaking episodes from his childhood and youth, extraordinary moments of professional development, and simple yet stunningly profound reflections on what really matters.
