Icarus Plummeting is a short but substantial and engaging read. David Zigmond, a veteran GP and psychiatrist, draws from his diaries and notebooks of several decades to now present authentic vignettes. These vividly written stories describe personal interactions and meanings in healthcare, and how they have changed over a professional lifetime. The prose in Icarus is precise yet poetic, vivid and colourful. Insights are sharp yet sometimes playful. He shows how our success with science has often pushed aside, then flattened, our personal engagements and understandings. Proliferating treatments are vaunted, but care becomes neglected and destitute.
This book will stimulate your mind, warm your heart …. yet chill your foresight.
