Hi Albert,
Jerry wrote: "Reynold Price's memoir, A Whole New Life, tells of his Job-like battle with cancer. Although the point of the book is certainly not to complain about doctors, it offers a very insightful look at medical treatment from the point of the patient. In his case, the doctors failed to mention what was for him the solution, which came from a nurse."
Can anyone send me this title? I have zero dollars for books in my very tite budget (8-)
Update Nov23,2k12 — A few days ago, I received a package in the mail from Amazon.com. Inside, there were 2 books — A Whole New Life by Reynolds Price (Scribner: New York, 1982 1st edition) and The End of Your Life Book Club by Will Schwalbe (Alfred A. Knopf: New York, 2012). Many thanks to my anonymous gift-giver, whom I shall try to identify after making a few inquiries. (8-) Look for more updates to this blog-entry! |
