Doctors at War tells the stories of physicians in France working to impede the German war effort and undermine French collaborators during the Occupation from 1940 to 1945. Determined to defeat the Third Reich's incursion, one group of prominent Paris doctors founded a medical network to treat injured Resistance fighters who they then secretly transported to Allied countries to avoid forced labor in Germany. Doctors at War stands as a dramatic, character-driven account of physicians' courage and resilience in the face of evil.

Não à toa, os mais célebres cirurgiões da época eram capazes de amputar uma perna em menos de trinta segundos.

¿Por qué cuando un hombre acude con dolor torácico a urgencias se le somete inmediatamente a un electrocardiograma y cuando es una mujer quien presenta idénticos síntomas se le da un ansiolítico? ¿Por qué una mujer estresada es tachada de histérica y en cambio el hombre padece con toda probabilidad el peso de la responsabilidad? ¿Por qué a las mujeres se les exige una perfección física imposible de alcanzar y un hombre con canas y curva de la felicidad es, sencillamente, un madurito interesante? ¿Por qué las mujeres continúan siendo invisibles para la medicina?
