Doctor's Tale, A

This autobiography of a Welsh doctor gives an insider's view of some remarkable incidents: some grave, others amusing but many disastrous, such as the story of the 60-year-old who was convinced that she was expecting a baby, and the young woman who was terrified of eating after seeing her friend choke to death whilst eating chips.
