The Weaving of Threads by B. Lewis Barnett Jr. M.D.

A collection of brief stories from the practice of this esteemed and beloved family practitioner and professor. Not only is he the doctor you wish you had, but in these pages you find a friend. My signed copy was given to me by my long-term partner who was mentored by 'Dr. B,' so I am a direct beneficiary of his wisdom and kind example, modeled by my partner. Barnett is a man of deep faith, strong but nurturing, always hopeful and seeing the potential in his residents.

I must confess I read this book, one story a week, usually finishing the stories with tears in my eyes.
