Book Reviews of Partners of the Heart: Vivien Thomas and His Work with Alfred Blalock: An Autobiography
Book Review: A must read!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is such an amazing story about a brilliant man, Dr. Vivien Thomas. It is amazing what Dr. Thomas accomplished without any formal training beyond high school. The field of cardiac research/surgery would not have been the same without him. When I found out my county library did not have this book I purchased it from Amazon so I could donate it to the library. This book should be available to anyone who wants to read about Dr. Vivien Thomas and his enormous contribution to the field of medicine!
