Another Day in the Frontal Lobe

Pretty good book. Interesting for the most part, but disturbing at times when she seems to go a lot further in her value judgments than a doctor should (“should we really spend money on keeping this person alive?”), as if it was a surgeon's job to define the economical balance between insurers and the insured.

Still, it was an enlightening read about what can and can't be done with brain surgery, what's hard about it, and so on. Recommended!
