Hardcover. Etat : Good. Etat de la jaquette : Good. 402 pages. Ex-library.The author, a physician and professor o f tropical medicine at Cornell, recounts his life and long career Editorial Reviews From Publishers Weekly Writing with freelanc er Dahlby, Kean presents a warm, humorous, often profoundly movin g memoir. Leaving his Indiana home at age 18 in 1930, Kean attend ed Columbia University and, in his second year at the medical sch ool, studied with the renowned Francis W. O'Connor, an irascible Irishman who pushed him with a red-hot poker. His medical career began as a scientific sleuth, researching tropical diseases in Pa nama, and later, epidemics in war-ravaged Europe. Back in the U.S . in a Park Avenue practice, his patients included Gertrude Lawre nce, Salvador Dali, Edna Ferber, Martina Navratilova and other lu minaries. The epidemiologist's stories inform and entertain, but none so dramatically as his accounts of researching AIDS or treat ing a doomed Shah of Iran. Copyright 1990 Reed Business Informa tion, Inc. From Library Journal This thoroughly entertaining bio graphical account follows Kean from his medical christening at Go rgas Hospital in Panama in the 1930s, through his professional de velopment as pathologist and parasitologist, to his private pract ice on New York's Park Avenue. Four of the 19 chapters, as well a s the prolog, detail Kean's involvement in the flight and medical treatment of the Shah of Iran. Kean's trials, triumphs, misadven tures, detective work, and sometimes downright shenanigans are su re to engross the general reader. - Annette Aiello, Smithsonian T ropical Research Inst., Panama Copyright 1990 Reed Business Infor mation, Inc.
