Features: This book offers an important, knowledge-based, and highly civilized insight, but it is only a part of his claims. It is highly engaging to read and completely easy to understand. The book is very readable, with particularly appealing medical short essays. It is a memoir of a distinguished physician who uses interesting human stories to convey his messages: healing and caring must once again become the focus of medicine. Dr. Lown presents the issues of the elderly with deep empathy, and his short essays on death and the dying process should be essential reading for those aspiring to be doctors. The book contains innovative short essays and thought-provoking stories, hinting that medicine has not yet completely lost its humanistic face.
This book introduces Dr. Lown's treatment experience as a renowned expert in heart disease treatment through six chapters: "Listening with the Heart – The Art of Diagnosis," "Listening with the Heart – The Art of Being a Doctor," "The Application of Technology," "Incurable Diseases," and "The Rewards of Practicing Medicine."
