It presents original and innovative approaches to medicine's age old questions, provides some answers, questions some accepted answers, while stressing the wonder of search for the truth all along. Written for innovative and inquisitive minds in search for ideas to pursue, and for sharing the mystique of medical research with the enlightened lay person, in "Questions, Answers, and Exclamations" Dr. Bharat Shah offers the contents of his garage--the modern innovator's den, in its entirety just for volunteering to take them. Dr. Shah's vision encompasses an extremely wide spectrum of doctors' daunting challenges in the areas of vital signs-- body temperature, heart rate, and respiration; issues of smoking cessation, craving, and weight gain; problems of failure of surgical wounds to heal; psychiatric issues like depression, suicide, anxiety, panic, and violence; and finally, developing artificial lungs system to treat respiratory failure. Even as the book is interesting to read, it is the author's final will and testament to bequeath his work of lifetime to future generations. He has carried the ball as far as he could. Now he passes it to more able hands to carry it further. To borrow from the field of organ donation and transplantation, he says, "Don't take your ideas to heaven. Heaven knows, how badly they are needed here!" Bharat S. Shah, M.D. is a retired Pulmonary Internist, and he lives in the metropolitan New York area.
