  • "Book cover image may be different than what appears on the actual book."

In gripping accounts of true cases, surgeon Atul Gawande explores the power and the limits of medicine, offering an unflinching view from the scalpel's edge. Complications lays bare a science not in its idealized form but as it actually isۥuncertain, perplexing, and profoundly human.

Complications is a 2002 National Book Award Finalist for Nonfiction.
