David allowed me to read this before publication and I cannot stress strongly enough how much I enjoyed and appreciated every word. I learned so much about what goes on in a surgeon's head, and was truly edified by Dr. Gelber's perspective. Nurses, doctors, medical caregivers, patients and loved ones of patients should read this. Wow.
I just bought a printed copy, so when I read it again, I'll say something more specific!
Thank you for your kind words, Ellen. "Behind the Mask" truly takes the reader inside a surgeon's head, at least one surgeon. Success, triumph, failure and disaster all are part of a surgeon's daily routine. It's a book for anyone that works in surgery, hopsitals, has had surgery or knows anyone that has had surgery.
