Following a traumatic car accident, Dr. Shrime -- a child of Lebanese refugees who later became a wealthy practicing surgeon in Boston -- found himself compelled to change the course of his life, determined to find happiness and fulfillment even if it meant diverting from America's idea of "success." Featuring stories, insights, and research from his own exceptional life and work, SOLVING FOR WHY is the story of Dr. Shrime's search for-and discovery of-lifelong fulfillment. Now a global surgeon operating on a hospital ship docked off the coast of West Africa and one of the few global experts on surgery in low- and middle-income countries, Dr. Shrime seeks to impart the wisdom of the lessons he's learned over the course of his search for a happy life. In the tradition of Dr. Paul Farmer's To Repair the World, Dr. Atul Gawande's Better, and Dr. Michele Harper's The Beauty in Breaking, SOLVING FOR WHY combines personal stories with deep, thoughtful research into the challenges of working in modern medicine in the 21st century and the commodification of work in America. A story of discovery and transformation, SOLVING FOR WHY seeks to help readers answer the "why" of their own lives and ultimately find happiness outside the status quo"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Shrime, Mark. 650 0 $a Surgeons $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Traffic accident victims $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a Social medicine. 650 0 $a Self-realization. 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220128010043.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F0C2ABC6800711ECA828FA2942ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
