The captivating stories in Passion for Living a Long Life were inspired by actual patient and family cases handled by author Farzad Tabibzadeh, MD, MSc. Each story depicts significant medical topics and health-related issues from the patient’s perspective and includes an analysis of Tabibzadeh’s actions as a physician. The supplemental “Medical” and “Medicolegal Wisdom” sections are organized and presented in simple language for those who wish to learn more about medical facts. People suffering from a particular illness or taking certain medications will find these sections helpful to better understand disease management. Through his experiences in the medical field, Tabibzadeh hopes to instill readers with a sound knowledge base through discussion of the following:
- Demonstrating the functions of organs and the harmony that exists in their performance
- Educating the medical community about the art of medicine
- Depicting the moral objectives for unifying communities with diversified cultural backgrounds
