BRAIN CHICANE Brain Chicane is a novel about Stanley Ruben, a young and idealistic physician working at the premier multiple-organ transplant hospital in Chicago. Motivated by his compassion for the disenfranchised, Dr. Ruben investigates overdose cases that are not totally kosher. Through twists, turns, trickery and deceit appearing at all levels of the hospital’s seemingly humanitarian bureaucracy, Stanley uncovers a wicked plot designed to inflate the careers, wallets and egos of a few surgeons and administrators who have no regard for life, the ethics of medicine or the trust placed in the medical community by its patients.     AUTHOR Alan Maisel, MD     ABOUT THE AUTHOR Alan Maisel, MD, attended medical school at the University of Michigan and did his internal medicine residency at the University of California, San Diego, where he currently serves as a Professor of Medicine and the Director of the Coronary Care Unit at the VA hospital.
