Product Description

No ORIGINAL Black WHITE Paper B5 BOOKPAPER (STRONG CUIDER), LIGHT MATERIALS Clear PRINTING (NICE) Gawande's SOFCOVERAuthentic VolIDE In Being Mortal, bestselling author Atul Gawande tackles the hardest challenge of his profession: how medicine can not only improve life but also the process of its ending Medicine has triumphed in modern times, transforming birth, injury, and infectious disease from harrowing to manageable. But in the inevitable condition of aging and death, the goals of medicine see too frequently to run counter to the interest of the human spirit. Nursing homes, preoccupied with safety, patients pin into railed beds and wheelchairs. Hospitals isolate the death, checking for vital signs long after the goals of cure have come moot. Doctors, committed to extending life, continue to carry out devastating procedures that in the end extends glory. Gawande, practicing surgeon, addresses his profession's ultimate limitation, arguing that quality of life is the desired goal for patients and family. Gawande offers of freer, more socially meeting models for assisting the infirm and dependent elderly, and explores the varieties of hospice care to demonstrate that a person's last or months may be rich and dignified. Full of eye-opening research and riveting storytelling, Being Mortal asserts that medicine can comfort and enhance our experience even to the end, providing notes only a good life but also a good end.
