"Medicine is a place where science tries to address a multiplicity of human needs. But often these needs go beyond anything that science can meet. Listening, compassion and openness to the complexity and uncertainty of life will always be at the heart of real medicine. Dr Berger's book is clearly based on many years of wise and patient-centered practice, and he weaves his narrative with fluency and flashes of humour. It is a wonderful read, aimed at a general audience but full of insight for every health professional."
