Surgeon David Nott has been volunteering in some of the most dangerous war areas in the world for over 25 years. He has performed life-saving procedures in the most difficult settings without the facilities of a large metropolitan hospital, from rebel-held eastern Aleppo to besieged Sarajevo in 1993. These days, most people agree that he is the world's most experienced trauma surgeon.
His incredible tale, War Doctor, chronicles his surgeries in almost every major combat zone since the conclusion of the Cold War and his challenges in readjusting to a "normal" life and routine following each journey. Combining elements of medical memoir, personal journey, and nonfiction thriller, War Doctor culminates in his recent trips to war-torn Syria—and the little-known story of his efforts to help secure a humanitarian corridor out of besieged Aleppo to evacuate about 50,000 people. It offers an unforgettable, sometimes unvarnished, insight into the human cost of war.
