The Last Physician

""The Last Physician "offers the pleasure of Walker Percy's companionship in leading an examined life. The authors talk with and through Percy's characters about medicine, about art and suffering, and about how their lives became richer as they acknowledge their share of the world's troubles."--Arthur W. Frank, author of "At the Will of the Body: Reflections on Illness and the Wounded Storyteller: Body, Illness, and Ethics"
