In her captivating 2015 New York Times bestseller, "The Shift: One Nurse, Twelve Hours, Four Patients’ Lives," Theresa Brown offered readers an eye-opening glimpse into a full day at her hospital’s cancer ward, providing a compassionate view inside the complex inner workings of our healthcare system and the individual struggles of her patients.
