This tell-all memoir covers David Egee's 40-year career in hospital administration in England, the USA, and throughout the Middle East. It features fascinating behind the scene glimpses of the politics throughout the Middle East and in the American University in Beirut and its hospital. ADHD as a child, Egee suffered through many years of reading and writing impairment. "I was ADHD before the expression became a household word." Egee overcame his learning handicap to become the Director of the American Hospital in Beirut at the age of 35, dealing with such Middle Eastern luminaries as Yasser Arafat and Muammar Gaddafi. Later, he established hospitals throughout the Middle East, just before the region exploded. In the 1980s, he worked for Hospital Corp. of America (HCA) in England, setting up hospitals and nursing homes. When HCA bowed out of Britain, he founded his own nursing home company. From
