"Anatomy and physiology are elegantly explained, not as abstract theory, but as counterpoint to gripping stories about survival against the odds. Real stories of life and near-death form the compelling backbone of the book. The book could easily have ended up as a series of Boy's Own tales of derring-do, but Fong elegantly balances heroism with rationalism, courage with compassion, shock with humility and humor."
Guardian (UK):
"From the outset Ice and Fire is a gripping read. It's the kind of book you want to read peeking through cracks in your fingers; you want to look away, but not as much as you want to know what happens... I held my breath, I shed a tear, I laughed out loud, and I struggled to keep my lunch down at various points through this book, and that can only be a good thing."
Times Higher Education
(UK
)
:
"Fong weaves together seemingly unconnected events in this world and beyond in a series of breathless vignettes... an appealing mix of academic eloquence and matey talk: ... In many ways, Ice and Fire is the story of the 20th century...We explore because we must, and if you have a sense of adventure and the miracle of life within you, then this book is for you."
Daily Mail:
"Fong has dramatic first-person accounts to give, and many more... he also proves himself to be a genuinely talented author... Fong has come up with an often fascinating and actually rather inspiring account of western medicine’s ever-increasing expertise."
