Stephen Sackur talks to one of Britain's leading brain surgeons,
Henry Marsh. Imagine you are a patient, about to undergo brain
surgery. If it goes well it will save your life; if it goes wrong
you could end up paralysed or dead. Of course you want to believe
your surgeon is infallible, a superhero - but he is not; he is
all too human just like you. That simple truth emerges from the
extraordinarily honest writing of Dr Henry Marsh. He has given us
rare insight into the mind of the doctor - is it reassuring or
troubling?
