Notes Of An Anatomist — F. Gonzalez-Crussi

In the solitude of his study, Gonzalez-Crussi, a practicing pathologist, ponders the meaning of the lives laid bare in his laboratory. Winner of the Society of Midland Authors Award, this wonderfully crafted collection on medical subjects is witty, urbane, and rich in history and philosophy. "Marvelously original and provocative" (Los Angeles Times).
