我们有史以来第一次以如此清晰的方式，目睹胚胎在一个月大到十星期大这个过程中的面部形成过程——直到这个过程结束，胚胎的体积也还只有一颗菜豆那么大。不过，更令人震惊的或许是影片本身——在子宫中，人类的“变形”并不比什么科幻动画与电影作品中的机器人来得平淡。胚胎的发育是地球生物演化数十亿年的缩影，人类的本源和几乎所有其它生物一样，在于鱼类。因此，人类的眼睛也同样是先出现在头的两侧，到后来才转移到中间；你的下唇与颚部最初出现在颈部的位置，一如鱼类的腮，而上唇和鼻孔则是从脑袋的上方逐渐降下来和下面“合体这一切扭曲、旋转、移动与拼接浑然天成，没有一道疤痕和缺口，不过在拼接的交汇处终究还是留下了一点痕迹，那就是你的人中以上内容出自BBC节目Inside the Human Body，由Michael Mosley博士主持。节目中还介绍了诸如“打嗝是从鱼类和两栖类继承下来的行为哦”等等有趣知识。
When Breath Becomes Air Douban Goodreads
For readers of Atul Gawande, Andrew Solomon, and Anne Lamott, a profoundly moving, exquisitely observed memoir by a young neurosurgeon faced with a terminal cancer diagnosis who attempts to answer the question What makes a life worth living?
At the age of thirty-six, on the verge of completing a decade’s worth of training as a neurosurgeon, Paul Kalanithi was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer. One day he was a doctor treating the dying, and the next he was a patient struggling to live. And just like that, the future he and his wife had imagined evaporated. When Breath Becomes Air chronicles Kalanithi’s transformation from a naïve medical student “possessed,” as he wrote, “by the question of what, given that all organisms die, makes a virtuous and meaningful life” into a neurosurgeon at Stanford working in the brain, the most critical place for human identity, and finally into a patient and new father confronting his own mortality.
What makes life worth living in the face of death? What do you do when the future, no longer a ladder toward your goals in life, flattens out into a perpetual present? What does it mean to have a child, to nurture a new life as another fades away? These are some of the questions Kalanithi wrestles with in this profoundly moving, exquisitely observed memoir.
Paul Kalanithi died in March 2015, while working on this book, yet his words live on as a guide and a gift to us all. “I began to realize that coming face to face with my own mortality, in a sense, had changed nothing and everything,” he wrote. “Seven words from Samuel Beckett began to repeat in my head: ‘I can’t go on. I’ll go on.’” When Breath Becomes Air is an unforgettable, life-affirming reflection on the challenge of facing death and on the relationship between doctor and patient, from a brilliant writer who became both.
