A Book Well Worth Reading
By Robert B. Sampsell

Dr. Tom Godwin has written an excellent book that at first seems to be the memoirs of a highly successful cardiologist. It would be well worth reading if that were all it was, as this man has been a pioneer in the specialty of cardiology during a period of amazing progress in treating conditions that in earlier times would have been a death sentence.

Book Review
by David R Richardson, MD
B.C. Medical Journal


(Excerpt) Dr Godwin's memoirs are a journey from his youth to present day. I know he's not dead yet as I recently saw him walk past my office in Langley. Dr. Godwin was always a practical, call-it-like-he-saw-it kind of guy. His words weave interesting tales of patients, advances in medicine, and hospital challenges.

Tom Godwin's memoir is readable, informative, humorous, and profound. There is realism and candor in his descriptions of cases - anguish, pathos, joy, failure, success - and invariably an explanation of the condition and its treatment that is understandable by the average reader.

It was a treat to read, and I enjoyed every word. It is one of the finest books I have read for a long time - good comments, not rude, honest. His conclusions are valid.
