American Triage: from 9/11 to Fahrenheit 451 - Paperback

by Adam Axler (Author)

Kitchen Confidential meets The Pitt when former Ground Zero paramedic and physician assistant turned bookseller, Adam Axler, chronicles his front row seat at the decline of Western medicine. Whether it's vaccines, vaginas, or vibrator removals, the machinations and demise of American medicine are revealed through sarcasm and tough love, offset by moments of connection and tenderness.

American Triage includes a terrifying 24 hour real-time account of September 11th. The aftermath will leave you crying and angry, and set the stage for solidifying Axler's determination to be of service and subsequently a lifetime of disappointment. Why taking the science out of medicine has been disastrous for both its present and its future. And why your own participation in its destruction is much grayer than you think.

This hybrid memoir is hilarious and heartbreaking.

So, step inside. It's time to be triaged.
