In this entertaining memoir, Dr. Gerald Cohen recounts his life as a radiologist in New York. As stated in the book’s introduction, Dr. Cohen “practiced in the golden years of radiology and medicine.” Without any computer assistance and mostly without more modern imaging instruments like CAT scans and MRIs, he “read” X-ray images, interpreting them for doctors and patients alike. Displaying abundant wit and moving insight, Dr. Cohen applies his interpretive skills to snapshots and memories of his own life.
