IPBooks is pleased to announce the publication of FIBRINOGEN MEMOIRS 3, RIPPLES ON THE WATER by Michael Mosesson. It is the final volume of the FIBRINOGEN MEMOIRS trilogy.In Fibrinogen Memoirs 3, the author chronicles stories and experiences that are linked to a single life-changing event that occurred shortly after he had graduated from medical school at SUNY-Downstate Medical Center. That event and its consequences are detailed in the book’s first chapter. The subtitle, Ripples On The Water, serves as a metaphor for the experiences and accomplishments that would not have occurred if not for that singular event.The chapters include a story about one of the inventors of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) who was a wannabe Nobel laureate, one about The Milwaukee Heart Project that resulted in successful design and development of a total artificial heart device (TAH), and another that concerned the actions of a rogue investigator whose unprecedented antics undermined and disrupted the peer review process.In another chapter the author relates some events that accompanied the decline of the fibrin cross-linking controversy, a topic that was the main subject of the second volume in this series. There is also a chapter describing the achievements of Jim Maroney, an aviation legend, and one describing the author’s role in performing cardio-pulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on a golf course and the subsequent fallout following the CPR.He also provides an account of his courtship and marriage to Shirley Ann McDowell that detailed his recovery from grief after her death. That account was followed by a related story about the provenance of a spiritual fantasy concerning his grandson, Sebastian Eckmann. The final chapter, Life with The Temkin Tribe, is about a long and convoluted relationship with Libby Temkin and other members of her ’tribe’. Together, these stories offer a rich tapestry that provides unique insights into Michael Mosesson’s character, his personal and professional relationships, his values, and some of his scientific accomplishments.
