Humanism in the operating theatre

Henry Marsh is a leading neurosurgeon and author of the bestselling memoirs Do No Harm and Admissions. His work on patients with severe brain damage has convinced him that all our thoughts and feelings are the results of physical processes in the brain, and the terrible suffering he has witnessed in patients has motivated him to support the campaign for a change in the law to allow people the right to an assisted death. He is a Patron of Humanists UK.
