TALES OF TWO CITIES
ByPublisher Description
Fast paced and funny, Chris Howard's tales of a medical life make great reading. The book starts in the 1960s Liverpool of the Beatles, where Chris, still a wet-behind-the-ears medical student throws himself into university life, politics and sailing. He describes the ups and downs of student life; the exams passed and failed, of learning to examine and treat patients and how to deliver babies.
After a decade in Liverpool as student and junior doctor, he moves with his young family to the Far East, to Hong Kong, joining a charismatic surgeon and together, through ups and downs, their practice grows and changes.
These are tales of life and death, of love and loyalty. A roller-coaster ride of long hours in maternity hospitals and clinics; of travelling in China and Asia, of sailing the South China Sea. These are stories guaranteed to keep the reader hooked to the end.
Illustrated with over 50 contemporary photographs.
