Al Muderis, Munjed—Walking Free
This the amazing story of Munjed Al Muderis – a young surgeon working in Baghdad when he was asked by the Military Police to partly amputate the ears of three busloads of army deserters. The Head Surgeon refused to perform these amputations and was hence executed in front of his staff. This was obviously a life changing day for Muderis, who managed to escape Baghdad to Indonesia and board a filthy refugee boat bound for Australia. This book tells not only about his story from his life in Baghdad in the 1980s until he was freed in 2000. It looks at the hopes and fears of other refugees both on the boat and also at the Detention Centre. 14 years down the track, he is one of the world’s leading osseointegration surgeons, transforming the lives of amputees with his pioneering technique.
