Description
"At thirty-six, on the verge of completing a decade's worth of training as a neurosurgeon, Paul Kalanithi was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, and the next he was a patient struggling to live. And just like that, the future he and his wife had imagined evaporated. His exquisitely observed memoir chronicles Kalanithi's transformation from a naïve medical student into a neurosurgeon at Stanford, and finally into a patient and new father confronting his own mortality." -- Page [4] of cover.
