How does it feel when saving lives is your job? Trauma surgeon Dr. Tim Buchman is a sought-after speaker, University professor, and medical leader who turns the lens inward, exploring the quiet cost of a life spent making impossible decisions. His powerfully crafted memoir examines what remains after the alarms fade. Told through unforgettable stories and the quieter reflections between them, RESCUE gives language to what rescuers carry but rarely say aloud. Honest and deeply human, RESCUE is for anyone who has ever been responsible for others and wondered what that responsibility does to the one who bears it. A book about saving lives—and learning to live with what you can’t save.
