Really well written account of the tragedy of Memorial Hospital during Katrina. I thought it was especially accurate, fair and descriptive. It gave a good account of Dr Pou presenting both her incredible caring and dedication as well as her blindness to what she had done. The ending chapter talking about how other organizations are trying to learn from Katrina and how best to triage during extreme situations was interesting.
