Bourdes à l'Hopital: Gaffes et Anecdotes Incroyables mais Vraies à l'Hopital et aux Urgences (French Edition)

Bourdes à l'Hopital: Gaffes et Anecdotes Incroyables mais Vraies à l'Hopital et aux Urgences (French Edition) Review



"Bourdes à l’Hôpital" est un recueil d’anecdotes authentiques, drôles, insolites, catastrophiques, souvent incroyables, rapportées, sous couvert d'anonymat, par des étudiants en médecine et des membres du personnel hospitalier. En passant, ce livre nous révèle aussi un aspect mal connu du quotidien de la profession médicale, et dépeint une réalité crue dépourvue de toute censure qui lui donne une valeur de véritable documentaire. L'erreur est humaine; l'humain n'y peut rien.

Minutes (French Edition)

Minutes (French Edition) Review



Le docteur Théodore Arenson, directeur de recherches de l’accélérateur statique du Centre de Recherches en Physique Fondamentale, fait une découverte étonnante lors de recherches sur la reproduction de mini trous noirs : un accès à une dimension temporelle parallèle à la notre, mais fort différente car les lois de la physique y sont altérées. En explorant avec succès cette dimension au caractéristiques déroutantes, Robert Haas, l’ami et cobaye volontaire du docteur Arenson, va voir sa vie basculer et son avenir totalement changer. Des développements de cette collaboration, se renforcera une amitié déjà profonde entre les deux hommes, et ceux-ci, à la suite d’un incident a priori insignifiant lors d’un retour dans notre dimension temporelle, n’auront plus d’autre choix que de partager un étrange destin que le reste du monde sera incapable d’expliquer.

Nombre de pages en livre papier: 280.
Avec sommaire interactif.
