Book excerpt: It is said that a surgeon must have 'the eyes of a hawk, the heart of a lion, and the hands of a lady, ' but have you ever wondered how a surgeon learns to operate, how he 'cuts his teeth' progressing from naive newly-qualified doctor to competent surgeon? In this collection of medical tales, the training of one slightly naive young trainee is viewed through the experiences of the patients he treats as he embarks on this most challenging of careers. We share his joy when things go well, his anguish when they don't and learn that, at the end of the day, compassion and a sense of humour make wonderful medicine.
