When Medicine Meets the Miraculous in Tower, Šternberk
There is a moment that every experienced nurse and physician knows but rarely discusses: the feeling that something is about to go wrong with a patient—a feeling that arrives without warning, without data, without any rational explanation.

Dr. Scott Kolbaba's collection documents case after case of medical professionals who acted on inexplicable intuitions and premonitions—and who were proven right. These aren't stories of lucky guesses; they are detailed accounts of clinical knowledge arriving through channels that medical science cannot yet explain. For readers fascinated by the intersection of medicine and the mysterious, this book is essential.
