description: Written by a retired physician, a gifted story-teller, this book provides glimpses of 8 decades of living and half a century of medicine, divided between rural general practice and hospital emergency departments. In vignettes, narrative, and essays, it portrays a way of being in the world, of living medicine as an art. "General practice" no longer exists, yet the relationship between patient and primary care physician is still the heart of health care.
