Henry Marsh Ordine dei libri (cronologico)

Генрі Марш не боїться визнати: лікареві вкрай важко бути чесним, вкрай болісно говорити про свої помилки. Його нова книжка «Ні сонце, ані смерть. Зі щоденників нейрохірурга» — надзвичайно особисті мемуари, що вражають відвертістю, мудрістю та літературною майстерністю. Завершуючи свою майже сорокарічну лікарську кар’єру, автор розмірковує про сенс людського існування, про суть праці лікаря, труднощі професії й про те, чим може обернутися відчайдушне бажання продовжити пацієнтові життя за всяку ціну. Генрі Марш — чудовий співрозмовник: випадки з хірургічної практики у Британії, Непалі, Україні перемежовуються яскравими та щемкими епізодами з його дитинства та юності, непересічними моментами професійного становлення та простими й водночас приголомшливо глибокими роздумами про те, що справді має значення.
