Kuhusu kitabu hiki cha kusikiliza

'Never, never, never give in'. Winston Churchill's famous quotation best sums up the life of Stephen Westaby, the world-leading cardiothoracic surgeon. This book chronicles the triumphs and failures of his surgical life, the lives saved and extended, the innovations he developed (such as artificial hearts) and his research discoveries. Having spent his childhood in the backstreets of a northern steel town, he went on to become one of the world's foremost heart surgeons. His drive for perfection in his profession took him to the world-renowned Harefield Hospital, the foremost heart surgery centre in Birmingham, Alabama, and the newly-created Cardiothoracic Centre in Oxford. Then in 2019 in Wuhan, he was the first Western doctor to learn about COVID-19 before the virus was identified.
