Imperfect: A Cancer Surgeon's Journey

In this engrossing and heart-tugging memoir, Dr. Ronald Irwin tells the story of his life: from gardening with his grandmother as a young child, through a tormented and dysfunctional upbringing to the trials and tribulations of self-funded educational pursuit resulting in national prominence as a cancer surgeon. Dr. Irwin's penchant for introspective self-analysis is readily apparent as he details his rise through academia and the corporate ladder of big hospital administration. Throughout it all his love for his children and his compassionate concern for his patients, are the driving force to his eventual attainment of serenity.
