The Child Surgeon

- Pediatric Surgery and the Endeavour to Cure Children in the OR

Bag om The Child Surgeon

Illness in a child is a tragedy on multiple levels. When children fall ill, parents, caregivers, family, friends, and members of the community suffer. The misery of their offspring is inherently upsetting to adults. Given the vital role that children carry for the progression of a mature society, this agony is anything but altruistic. A sick child threatens not only the existence of the affected child but in truth jeopardizes the integrity of the community. Pediatric surgeons belong to a group of doctors who exclusively focus on surgery in children. Their specialty is relatively new and arose only in the last fifty years. Albeit a young medical specialty, pediatric surgery has become one of the most prestigious and highly specialized fields in medicine.The Child Surgeon recounts the story of the birth, growth, and future of surgery for babies and children. In tracing the history of the success story of pediatric surgery, the book discusses both the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead. This book is for everyone: nurses, physicians, residents, fellows, medical students, patients, parents, grandparents, therapists, hospital administrators, legislators, and anyone else interested in the care of children.The profit of each book sold will be dedicated entirely to research in pediatric surgery.
