520			_a"Speaking of Operations--" by Irvin S. Cobb is a humorous account written in the early 20th century. The book is a personal narrative that explores the experiences and peculiarities surrounding medical operations. Through his engaging storytelling, Cobb offers insights into the world of surgery, medical professionals, and the societal impact of surgical procedures during his time. In this reflective and comedic piece, the author recounts his own adventure of undergoing a surgical operation, infused with wit and an observational lens on human behavior. Cobb describes his interactions with various doctors, the intricacies of diagnoses, and the chaotic yet routine environment of a hospital. Using his trademark humor, he shares anecdotes about patients' conversations revolving around their operations—their fears, experiences, and the way such experiences become central topics of discussion in social situations. Throughout the narrative, Cobb not only highlights the farcical nature of medical practices but also reveals a profound respect for the medical profession, ultimately leading to a deeper understanding of life, health, and the human condition.
