No institution has so captivated and intrigued Americans as the hospital. It is where the miracles of modern medicine meet the mysteries of the human body. It is where life begins-- and often ends. It embodies our hopes and fears, our capacity for heroism and compassion. Now, based on an unforgettable series of first-person narratives, LIFE AND DEATH takes us behind the scenes for an intimate and inspiring look at one of the best hospitals in the country, New York's Columbia-Presbyterian. We witness the pressure-packed decision-making process of the hospital's elite heart transplant team; spend a morning in the delivery room as twelve new lives enter the world; share the emergency staff's struggle to care for one midsummer night's wounded in New York City. From the ravages of AIDS and cocaine to the rigors of internship to the remarkable redemptive powers of our great healers, LIFE AND DEATH captures the entire range of human experience -- the poignancy, pain, and humor that are all part of a day's work at this extraordinary institution.

The key to looking younger isn’t always plastic surgery. There are many better, safer, and less expensive options that will remove wrinkles, revitalize skin, and make you look years younger—and they all can be performed by a dermatologist, not a plastic surgeon. Steven Victor, one of America’s leading cosmetic dermatologists, reveals the secrets of these nonsurgical treatments in Ageless Beauty. From laser resurfacing to chemical peels to mesotherapy, readers will learn how a dermatologist can take the years off by removing wrinkles, age spots, and varicose veins from their faces, hands, necks, and legs. None of the procedures requires anesthesia, and in many cases, the results are even better than the traditional nip and tuck! With straightforward, accessible information and advice, Ageless Beauty is the equivalent of a costly consultation with one of the pioneers of cosmetic dermatology. It’s the ultimate sourcebook for all women—and men—who want to look younger but don’t want the risks, expense, and recovery time of plastic surgery. ... Now, of course, you may be wondering: Why choose these treatments over plastic surgery? Isn’t plastic surgery still the way to go for truly transformative results? In most cases, the answer is a resounding no. Naturally there is an important place for plastic surgery, which, in fact, I recommend to patients as a worthy complement to certain resurfacing techniques, if I think it’s merited. But no matter how old you are or how many wrinkles you have, if your skin isn’t sagging, your first visit should absolutely, unequivocally be to a cosmetic dermatologist. —From Ageless Beauty
