Nott's story is a really valuable reflection on both political and ethical aspects of warfare. While, maybe not the most eloquently written, its constant changes of scenary, place and time give a true insight into what it is like to be a doctor on the front lines. Not only faced with horrific instances of truly heinous war crimes but also the cultural and political effects that are observed from his perspective.
Not slow paced but constant switches between scenarios / story recounting to the breakdown of scientific processes and mechanisms make it a very enjoyable, reflective read.
