He returns to medicine in the closing story, where he takes aim at the dream of winning a Nobel Prize, a not uncommon delusion. The stories in between are an eclectic assortment, touching lightly on sexism, racism, ageism, prejudice, climate change, and reality television. Far from ponderous or purposeful, the stories are amusing and suspenseful. Holtzman draws on his experience as a medical scientist at Johns Hopkins where he is now Emeritus Professor of Pediatrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 184\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.42 x 7.99 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 19, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46594299101381,"sku":"9780998489360","price":30.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/GB05mm_afU9780998489360.webp?v=1785083408","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/the-strange-malady-of-alessandros-uncle-and-other-stories-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
