Overview

Rob J. Cole, un joven londinense del siglo XI que pertenece a una familia de carpinteros, queda huérfano a los nueve años y con la responsabilidad de cuidar de sus cuatro hermanos menores, a quienes va encontrando hogar. Primera entrega de la apasionante historia de Rob J. Cole, que continúa con Chamán y La doctora Cole. Una vez solo coincide con Henry Croft, un cirujano barbero que deambula por Inglaterra montando espectáculos y dedicándose a ejercer de curandero para vender un ungüento milagroso y del que se convierte en aprendiz. Con Henry Croft comparte viaje, cartel y beneficios hasta que el maestro muere. Y es entonces cuando conoce a Benjamín Merlín, un médico judío que le alenta a superarse y hacer realidad su sueño, y que le habla del más eminente médico de la remota Persia: Ibn Sina o Avicena. Rob, llevado por su pasión por sanar y aliviar el dolor, llega a Oriente donde se hará pasar por judío y adoptará el nombre de Jesse ben Benjamín, para no destacar como europeo y poder hacer realidad su sueño: estudiar medicina en la madraza de Ispahán. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION An orphan leaves Dark Ages London to study medicine in Persia in this “rich” and “vivid” historical novel from a New York Times–bestselling author (The New York Times). A child holds the hand of his dying mother and is terrified, aware something is taking her. Orphaned and given to an itinerant barber-surgeon, Rob Cole becomes a fast-talking swindler, peddling a worthless medicine. But as he matures, his strange gift—an acute sensitivity to impending death—never leaves him, and he yearns to become a healer. Arab madrassas are the only authentic medical schools, and he makes his perilous way to Persia. Christians are barred from Muslim schools, but claiming he is a Jew, he studies under the world’s most renowned physician, Avicenna. How the woman who is his great love struggles against her only rival—medicine—makes a riveting modern classic. The Physician is the first book in New York Times–bestselling author Noah Gordon’s Dr. Robert Cole trilogy, which continues with Shaman and concludes with Matters of Choice.
