From Publishers Weekly:
New York University Medical Center professor Weissman examines a range of subjects, from the case history of a "bag lady" at Bellevue Hospital to a tribute to W. H. Auden and William Carlos Williams. Overall the focus of these essays is "the discrepancy between technical expertise and social management," PW observed.
