Description
This Czech-language book completes the trilogy about the relationship between people and medicine, following O duši medika and O duši lékaře. Here, patients and their loved ones speak about the experience of illness. Authentic stories of people facing threats to their health and lives reveal fear and vulnerability, as well as patience, faith, humility, courage and gratitude towards those who care for them. They show that illness is not merely a physical condition, but also a journey towards understanding oneself, others and new values. The stories emphasise that humanity, empathy and trust remain as important in medicine as science, and that genuine healing cannot exist without them, even in an age increasingly reliant on technology and artificial intelligence. The book also pays tribute to Professor Ctirad John, the chief editor of the entire trilogy, who did not live to see the final volume published. His vision and dedication made the book possible, allowing it to inspire, motivate and carry his legacy forward.
