The obi has some creasing, and there is some staining on a portion of the pages (as shown in the photos), but otherwise, the condition is good. Professor Atsushi Amano of Juntendo University, a cardiac surgeon, has saved the lives of over 6,000 people. In February 2012, he performed the heart surgery on Emperor Akihito, which surprised the public because the surgeon was not a doctor from the University of Tokyo Hospital. Why was a doctor who entered Nihon University's medical school after failing the entrance exams three times chosen to be the Emperor's surgeon? You'll find the answer in this, the author's first book!
