Masters of the Word - Final Diagnosis: Arthur Hailey's novel from a medical background. The plot takes us to the pathology of an American hospital in the 1950s.
Anyone can make mistakes in life, but not in a medical environment... The excellent Arthur Hailey presents a thrilling story from the 1950s, showing that a hospital is often a cruel world with its own rules and complex relationships. It clashes the ambitions of young doctors with the efforts of their ageing colleagues to keep up with their pace. In addition, typhus infection comes into play. It's only when Three Counties Hospital is threatened with closure that anyone's abilities are revealed.
