Reviews
Senate Majority Leader Frist is a favorite of the Republican Party as a poster boy of compassionate conservatism. A physician who volunteers his services in Sudan and advocates increased funding for HIV/AIDS research, who takes a pro-life position on abortion but advocates for federal funding of stem-cell research, Frist has earned the respect of politicians of both parties. Frist, who continues to practice as a physician, made a name for himself as a heart transplant surgeon before entering politics and rising to the position of majority leader. Martin chronicles Frist's life of privilege, sense of duty, religious conviction, and ambition in arenas of both medicine and politics. In the second part of the book, Frist speaks for himself in several speeches and columns on social issues, where he lends particular insight and expertise as a physician, as well as on broader subjects of the war in Iraq and conservatism. Readers of all political persuasions will enjoy this look at an exceptional politician. Vanessa Bush
