The hardcover edition

My book came out in the UK on Thursday, July 23. I've been a nervous wreck. I check the rankings on amazon.co.uk constantly, trying to remain mindful that it's also on sale in brick-and-mortar stores and other sites such as Tesco. It has garnered some good Web publicity, suich as this review by Simon Appleby of BookGeeks. It's all very exciting, though; it reminds me of when I was accepted to medical school. I was poised to take the GRE examination when I heard from George Washington Shcool of Medicine, and was about to retake the MCAT when I heard from the school I wound up attending, University of Massachusetts Medical School. Can that really have been thirty years ago?
