Secrets of the ER: Physician Stories From Destiny, Diego Suarez

Larry Dossey, MD, has argued that premonitions represent "nonlocal mind"—the hypothesis that consciousness extends beyond the brain and can access information across time and space. Whether or not you accept that hypothesis, the physician premonitions documented in Physicians' Untold Stories demand some explanation. In Destiny, Diego Suarez, Coastal Madagascar, readers are grappling with accounts that resist conventional interpretation: a physician who dreamed of a patient's rare diagnosis before any symptoms appeared, a nurse who felt an overwhelming urge to return to a patient's room moments before a code, a surgeon whose inexplicable unease about a procedure led to the discovery of an unsuspected complication. These are not ghost stories; they are clinical reports from credible witnesses.
