In this Medical Center Hour, Ellen Ficklen, the former editor of "Narrative Matters," takes us behind the scenes at Health Affairs to probe the close working relationship between authors and editors as manuscripts are sculpted and polished into essays that surgeon/author Atul Gawande describes as "some of health care's most stunning writing."
