When death becomes life. The everyday life of a transplant doctor

Joshua Mezrich sheds light on one of the most important, amazing and inspiring the reverence of the achievements of modern medicine: transplanting organs from humans to person. In this deeply personal and unusually touching book, he illuminates the amazing sphere of transplantology, allowing miracles to happen daily, and also talks about incredible doctors, donors and patients who are in the center of this almost unimaginable world.
The author invites us to the operating room and demonstrates an amazing process of organs transplantation: an exquisite, but dynamic dance, requiring a clear distribution of time, impressive skills and sometimes creative improvisation. Most doctors are fighting death, but transplantologists receive benefits from death. Mesrich talks about how he is grateful for the privilege to be part of the incredible exchange between living and the dead
