Summary

The largest public hospital in New York City, Bellevue serves everyone from UN diplomats to illegal Fukinese immigrants, Park Avenue bluebloods to Riker's Island inmates. It is both a microcosm of the world and a bellwether for the country. Dr. Eric Manheimer, the hospital's longtime medical director, offers a look inside this legendary institution through twelve stories, each its own self-contained medical drama - including his own.
