Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A spine surgeon looks back on a career that began in post-war Germany and led to the operating rooms of Berlin and beyond. From his first steps as a young doctor to the pioneering of minimally invasive and artificial-disc surgery, he tells how a fascination with the spine shaped his life. The stories range from dramatic emergencies and unusual patients to the night the Berlin Wall fell. Along the way, he reflects on leadership, mistakes, and what it takes to earn a patient's trust.
