Cautionary Tales for the Physician

by Peter Drew

Overview

This book provides in verse an A-Z of unusual cases which have challenged the author over a period of more than 40 years. Some are exotic, some tragic, some embarrassing, some triumphant, but all are recorded as they happened.

This book presents each case in verse with anecdotes, often amusing, to explain what really happened. The explanations which follow, in prose, will enable the reader to learn about some very rare cases and thereby share the learning experience.

Above all, this book is meant to convey the joy of medical practice, with new challenges just around the corner ready to test the unwary.
