Summary:
"As a retired brain surgeon, Henry Marsh thought he understood illness, but he was unprepared for the impact of his diagnosis of advanced cancer. 'And
Finally
,
Matters
of
Life
and
Death
' explores what happens when someone who has spent a lifetime on the frontline of
life
and
death
finds himself contemplating what might be his own
death
sentence. As he navigates the bewildering transition from doctor to patient, he is haunted by past failures and projects yet to be completed, and frustrated by the inconveniences of illness and old age. But he is also more entranced than ever by the mysteries of science and the brain, the beauty of the natural world and his love for his family. Elegiac, candid, luminous and poignant, And
Finally
is ultimately not so much a book about
death
, but a book about
life
and what
matters
in the end."--From publisher.
