Advance praise for "A Fullness of Uncertain Significance" - Myles Hopper, PhD JD

In this compelling, insightful, and beautifully written compendium of stories, Bruce Campbell shares the lessons he has learned, and continues to learn, throughout his medical education and his years as a highly successful surgeon, faculty member, and teacher. A Fullness of Uncertain Significance is refreshingly honest and introspective, exploring not only many of the desirable outcomes when he had been faced with a broad array of professional challenges, some potentially life-and death, but also those outcomes that were less than he had hoped for.

Readers will appreciate the author’s willingness to reveal that, “As a surgeon, I have made mistakes that have hurt people. This should not surprise anyone since, besides being a surgeon, I also am a human being.” Providers, teachers, and students of health care in every field and at every level of service will benefit greatly from what the author has accurately labeled “Stories of Surgery, Clarity, & Grace.”

This isn’t merely a book about one man’s life as a surgeon. It is a book about the need for understanding and compassion when dealing with others, especially those in distress.

- Myles Hopper, PhD, JD, author of My Father’s Shadow

From Dr. Campbell:

I was privileged to be in a writing group with Myles Hopper a couple of years ago and have always loved his gifts as a storyteller. His writing is insightful and creative. I highly recommend his memoir, My Father's Shadow.

Advance praise for “A Fullness of Uncertain Significance” - Martina Scholtens, MD MPH

“In this collection of essays, Dr. Campbell pulls the reader into his Milwaukee otolaryngology clinic, the operating room, and his medical work in Kenya. He tells story after story with wonder, humour, and affection. He looks back on his medical training and fantasizes about medicine in the mid-twenty-first century. He lets us in on his unique vantage point on humanity, and does so with such humility and grace that his own humanity is never in question.”

-Martina Scholtens, MD, author of “Your Heart is the Size of Your Fist”

From Dr. Campbell:

I love Dr. Scholtens’ book about her work in a Vancouver, BC refugee clinic! It was one of my inspirations as I put together my book. In addition to being a great writer, she is trained in both family medicine and psychiatry, is a parent, and is a wonderful human being.
