About this book
A country doctor who distrusts new instruments can still earn the confidence of an entire district. In the opening story of Arthur Conan Doyle's medical collection, a younger physician remembers Dr. James Winter first as a frightening presence in childhood, then as a gentle companion through illness. His old methods and practical skill raise a question about how scientific progress and personal care fit together.
The stories move between professional experience and unsettling situations. In the middle excerpt, surgeon Douglas Stone travels through a stormy London night to attend a patient in a shabby house near Euston Road. Doyle's preface explains his interest in the courage, affection and suffering that doctors encounter. Readers interested in fiction about work will find bedside relationships, generational disagreement and the pressures of medical responsibility.
