...gave up on ER post-George Clooney, this book is what you have been craving. Gawande is a writer with a scalpel pen and an X-ray eye, and in this memoir he applies them to the world of the stressed-out, sleep-deprived, terrifyingly fallible trainee surgeon, where life-or-death decisions are made on the basis of five cups of coffee and an educated guess.

How did CSI pull off this perfect crime? Here's the evidence...
...executions. On Greg a floppy-eared puppet lands on a kids' show whose furry cast members throw hissy fits and pop Percocets off-camera just like flesh-and-blood divas.
