两部获奖纪录片主角原型。《你的生命在他们手中》（Your Life in Their Hands）获得皇家电视学会金奖，《英国医生》(The English Surgeon)获得艾美奖最佳纪录片和上海白玉兰奖最佳纪录片。后者以马什医生每年两前往乌克兰进行定点医疗，为当地患者免费实施脑外科手术的真实经历为蓝本。
As a practical brain surgeon I have alwyas found the philosophy of the so-called 'Mind-Brain Problem' confusing and ultimately a waste of time. It has never seemed a problem ot me, only a source of awe, amazement and profound surprise that my consciousness, my very sense of self, the self which feels as free as air, which was trying to read the book but instead was watching the clouds through the high windows, the self which is now writing these words, is in fact the electrochemical chatter of one hundred billion nerve cells. The author of the book appeared equally amazed by the 'Mind-Brain Problem', but as I stated to read his list of thories- functionalism, epiphenomenalism, emergent materialism, dualistic interactionism or was it interactionistic dualism? - I quickly drifted off to slee...

The book is painfully honest. With making mistakes in medicine. With facing death for certain. With medicine being helpless and cannot offer any useful means. So many touching It's very hard to imagine what dying patients and their family are going throug...

Doctors like to talk of the 'art and science' of medicine. I have always found this rather pretentious, and prefer to see what I do as a practical craft. Clipping aneurysms is a skill, and one that takes years to learn. Even when the aneurysm is exposed and...

如果每个医生心里都有一座坟墓，以神经外科手术的复杂性，医生大概要建一片公墓了。 在刀刃上行走，神经粗犷是一种自我保护，马什医生选了保留同理心，不遗忘是种美德。

在知识分子内部阵营里，医生所处的那个领域，正好是文人学者的对面，他以利刃瓦解生命的威胁，而不是搭建抽象的意识形态。与电视剧里的狗血场面相反，真实的医生职业生涯往往与失败相伴，如何在死神得意洋洋的黑镰刀下面保持人类的尊严和前行的勇气，这部书的价值也许正在于此，失败乃至要被告上法庭的误诊，被一个个记录和反思。
