"Experience may not be the best teacher, but it is frequently the most dramatic." - Robert M. Anderson
An engaging and often humorous slice of family history by pioneer cardiac surgeon and Tucson family patriarch, Bob Anderson. These reminiscences include Bob's autobiography of his early life, the story of his marriage to Alice, and more than twenty-five vignettes from his years of medical practice and teaching. Edited, annotated, and with a Foreword by his grandson, Doug, this volume also includes a biographical timeline of Bob's life, seventeen pages of vintage black-and-white photos, and a collection of axioms and aphorisms.
