ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I owe an enormous debt to the physicians and scientists who advised me during the writing of this novel. Needless to say, they have more important things to do than attempt to resuscitate imaginary people. I’m humbled by both their intelligence and their generosity in granting me access to their fields.

Please know that any implausibilities or biases are solely attributable to me and do not reflect the perspective of these experts. Some of them answered questions or allowed me to interview them; some read background scenes or passages specific to their circumstances; a few read the entire manuscript. Any errors stem from my failure to heed their advice.
