A fascinating book from the pen of a retired surgeon who achieved eminence in his field of maxillofacial surgery.

A former president of the British Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons and council member of the Royal College of Surgeons, he describes his involvement in the treatment of facial injuries, jaw deformities and cancer and the everyday complexities of life as a surgeon, all with compassion and understanding.

This engaging autobiography uses a wealth of anecdotes ranging from the hilarious to the tragic to illustrate life as a child in wartime London, the realities of being a medical student, the challenges of trying to balance family and professional responsibilities, and so much more - a first-hand insight into life behind the surgical mask.
