Bloodletting & Miraculous Cures Stories
Vincent Lam
This collection of twelve interwoven stories follows the lives of four young medical students and physicians—Fitz, Ming, Chen, and Sri—as they progress from medical school to the intense world of emergency rooms, evacuation missions, and research into chilling new viruses. Drawing on the author's own experience as an emergency room physician, the stories provide a riveting, eye-opening account of what it means to be a doctor, exploring their relationships, moral dilemmas, and the fears, frustrations, and responsibilities linked with the profession.
