Our Bodies Belong to God: Organ Transplants, Islam, and the Struggle for Human Dignity in Egypt
This book analyzes the national debate over organ transplantation in Egypt as it has unfolded during a time of major social and political transformation—including mounting dissent against a brutal regime, the privatization of health care, advances in science, the growing gap between rich and poor, and the Islamic revival. --Margaret Lock, co-author of An Anthropology of Biomedicine “This is the best ethnography yet available on Islamic ethical reasoning and medical practice.
Reviews
"This book really makes you think about organ transplantation, bioethics and the process of making an ethical decision."
"This is a very well-done analysis of issues surrounding organ transplantation in Egypt."
"This is a unique book covering such a wide array of concepts that to call it multi-disciplinary would do it an injustice. The book takes the reader on a journey of discovery through the complexities of transplantation, faith and nationhood in a country emerging from a tumultuous recent history. This refreshing book comes at a time when much of the literature in the field of transplantation ethics has become stagnant, with the same issues being debated with little progress. Likewise, the book affords the opportunity to those awaiting transplantation or those have already been through the transplantation process to consider wider issues that is again unlikely to be explained to them in the conventional clinical setting. While my review primarily focusses on the societal and ethical aspects of live organ donation, it is important to note that the book covers a wide area of related topics, such as corneal transplantation and the specific dynamics of the Egyptian environment."

Best Neurosurgery

Do No Harm: Stories of Life, Death, and Brain Surgery
A New York Times Bestseller. Shortlisted for both the Guardian First Book Prize and the Costa Book Award. Longlisted for the Samuel Johnson Prize for Non-Fiction. A Finalist for the Pol Roger Duff Cooper Prize. A Finalist for the Wellcome Book Prize. A Financial Times Best Book of the Year. An Economist Best Book of the Year. A Washington Post Notable Book of the Year. What is it like to be a brain surgeon? Painfully honest about the mistakes that can 'wreck' a brain, exquisitely attuned to the tense and transient bond between doctor and patient, and hilariously impatient of hospital management, Marsh draws us deep into medicine's most difficult art and lifts our spirits. His love for brain surgery and his patients shines through, but the specialty--shrouded in secrecy and mystique when he entered it--has now firmly had the rug pulled out from under it. Do No Harm: Stories of Life, Death and Brain Surgery by Henry Marsh reveals all of this, in the midst of life-threatening situations, and that's one reason to read it; true honesty in an unexpected place. But there are plenty of others - for instance, the mechanical, material side of being, that we also are wire and strings that can be fixed, not unlike cars and washing machines, really. With rare and unflinching honesty, Henry Marsh describes not only the soaring triumphs but the shattering tragedies that are so much a part of every surgeon's life. The personal patient stories are gripping, providing the public with an incredibly candid look into the imperfections and perfections of a dedicated neurosurgeon. ... For its unusual and admirable candor, wisdom and humor, Do No Harm is a smashing good read from which the most experienced and the most junior neurosurgeons have much to learn. This thoughtful doctor provides a highly personal and fascinating look inside the elite world of neurosurgery, appraising both its amazing successes as well as its sobering failures. Henry Marsh peels back the meninges to reveal the glistening, harrowing, and utterly compelling world of neurosurgery.
Reviews
"It is accurate in the descriptions of medical details, surgical procedures, and the life of brain surgeons. They are by turns kind, irritating, cocky, courageous, arrogant, brilliant, obsessive, awe-inspiring, and lonely. Henry Marsh relates how he was stuck in a line of shoppers at the grocery store and thinks with irritation that none of them could do what he just did today, so why does he have to wait behind them? Like fighter pilots or Special Forces, society is not comfortable with such people, but when we need them, we need them desperately. There is a moment before every invasive medical procedure when you could pause and contemplate the enormous consequences of failure. If you spend too much time thinking about the appalling human carnage that will result from surgery gone wrong, you will never take up the knife."
"By the end of the book, I realized what a fine line there is between life and death and admired his courage for continuing to overcome his own self-doubt in order to operate on patients with very serious brain disorders and poor prognosis."
"The topic is interesting in and of itself however Marsh is honest, succinct, objective and subjective offering a very human perspective on brain surgery, the world of hospitals, procedures, healthcare systems, doctors and patients."
"I really enjoyed this book."
"At the same time if you do not hide or deny any mistakes when things go wrong, and if your patients and their families know that you are distressed by whatever happened, you might, if you are lucky, receive the precious gift of forgiveness.”. You may enjoy the book."
"Fascinating, candid, compassionate insight into the world of neurosurgery that few get to experience."
