Review
This book is a treasury of healthcare heroes! They personify the Great Physician, providing inspiration and insight to doctor and patient alike. I couldn't put this book down and neither will you! (Dr. David Stevens Christian Medical and Dental Society )
This isn't a textbook; it has personality as well as information. (CBA Marketplace )

About the Author
Dan Graves recieved his undergraduate degree from John Wesley College and a M.S. in Library Science from Western Michigan University. An avid, life-long reader, Graves became interested in the topic of apologetics from reading C.S. Lewis and Francis Schaeffer, which led to a focus on the personal histories of various scientists of the faith.

5.0 out of 5 stars
wonderful Christ honoring book about heroes in the medical field,
This review is from: Doctors Who Followed Christ: 32 Biographies of Historic Physicians and Their Christian Faith (Paperback)
Fabulous book! I have recommended it to many. Great insight into both the life changing contributions in medicine by some of our unsung heroes and their faith in Christ that lead them and sustained them.
