Book excerpt: "In More Letters From The Pit, a sequel to the popular Letters From The Pit, I share how, over the course of my career, I considered the roles that fate, destiny, and karma seem to play in our lives. Medical care is an imperfect science and it's delivery complicated. Why some patients we think will easily recover from an injury or illness die, and those we believe are already beyond our help somehow rally and recover is mystifying. Just what, if anything, controls these events? Are they preordained or are there true miracles. The book is again structured in first-person, stream -of-consciousness narrative of my life as a doctor. What I saw and what I was thinking in real time as I treated patients. In addition this collection of fascinating and exciting cases, I explore some of the darker corners of life in the emergency Room. How we deal with those patients we can't help and the angst and feelings of personal loss that accompany those cases. Events so horrific and heart-rending they can never be forgotten. And of course the joy of triumph caring for those we pull from the jaws of death. The style of presentation will leave you with the feeling that you were there with me, looking over my shoulder, as I worked." -- Amazon.com
