Story
At the age of twenty-two, Phil Z was diagnosed with stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Instead of starting his new career as a fourth-grade teacher and getting engaged to the love of his life, he experienced uncertainty and despair in the face of tests, surgeries, appointments, medications, and a myriad of devastating symptoms caused by both cancer and treatment.

Story
Franziska Böhler ist Krankenschwester – und Pflegeaktivistin. Mit ihrem Einsatz für bessere Bedingungen in der Pflege hat sie vielen aus dem Herzen gesprochen. Und doch gab es eine Zeit, in der sie nicht mehr weitermachen kann. Zu viel prasselt auf sie ein: Sie wird bewundert, um Rat gefragt, und sie wird kritisiert, beleidigt, bedroht. Franziska Böhler versucht allem gerecht zu werden, als Mutter von zwei Kindern, als Aktivistin und als Krankenschwestern. Sie versucht den Hass auszublenden, Kritik abperlen zu lassen – doch irgendwann ist das nicht mehr möglich.

Story
Larger-than-life, creative, and fiercely ambitious, Dr. Charlie Bennett has a long history of revealing dangerous side effects of bestselling medicines. In 2006, his meta-analysis of existing data showed that top-selling ESAs (erythropoietin stimulating agents) created previously unrecognized risks, deaths, and serious illness. According to Dr. Steven Rosen, chief medical officer of the City of Hope Cancer treatment center, Bennett “saved more lives than anyone in American medicine.” Taking On Big Pharma explores Bennett’s achievement and evaluates the charges against him.

Story
In 1943, Kathleen, then thirty, was a nurse-in-training at the Blackburn Royal Infirmary. For the next three years, she kept a meticulous diary of her day-to-day existence, leaving behind a vivid record of the real-time concerns of a busy, thoughtful woman on the frontline of the war at home. Kathleen’s days were never the same. She writes in clear and lively prose about life in the hospital: of her fellow nurses, her patients, about death and dying, and the progress of the war as wounded soldiers returned from Normandy in the summer of 1944.

Story
Ignác Semmelweis is remembered for the now-commonplace notion that doctors must wash their hands before examining patients. In mid-19th century Vienna, however, this was a subversive idea. With deaths from childbed fever exploding, Semmelweis discovered that doctors themselves were spreading the disease. While his simple reforms worked immediately - childbed fever in Vienna all but disappeared - they brought down upon Semmelweis the wrath of the establishment, and led to his tragic end.

Permanent Present Tense tells the incredible story of Henry Gustav Molaison, known only as H. M. until his death in 2008. In 1953, at the age of 27, Molaison underwent a dangerous "psychosurgical" procedure intended to alleviate his debilitating epilepsy. The surgery went horribly wrong, and when Molaison awoke he was unable to store new experiences. For the rest of his life, he would be trapped in the moment. But Molaison’s tragedy would prove a gift to humanity.

In the early evening on October 1, 2003, Christina Crosby was three miles into a 17 mile bicycle ride, intent on reaching her goal of 1,000 miles for the riding season. She was a respected senior professor of English who had celebrated her 50th birthday a month before. As she crested a hill, she caught a branch in the spokes of her bicycle, which instantly pitched her to the pavement. Her chin took the full force of the blow, and her head snapped back. In that instant, she was paralyzed.
