Book Reviews of Hot Lights, Cold Steel: Life, Death and Sleepless Nights in a Surgeon's First Years

Book Review: Hot Lights, Cold Steel
Summary: 4 Stars

The author describes in just the right amount of detail, what his residency in orthopedics was like at the prestigious Mayo Clinic. The struggle between the incredibly demanding hours of training and his responsibilities as a husband and dad are intense. Throw in some moonlighting on weekends in the ER and "you're good to go insane." A perfect summer read.
