Alien Emergencies Omnibus (Sector General #4-6) by James White, David Langford (Introduction)
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 598 KB
Overview: The second three volumes of James White’s Sector General SF saga, in a single omnibus edition.
Sector General: A vast hospital complex in the depths of outer space. The thousands who work there, human and alien both, have a single mission: To care for all patients, of all species. At Sector General, anything can happen-and frequently does.
James White’s tales of Sector General are lively, humorous, and humane, at times shot through with a healer’s anger at violence and destruction. These are endlessly inventive dramas of civility and spirituality, tempered with White’s gently wicked wit and his keen eye for the remarkable in the everyday.
Now, in a single omnibus, the second three volumes of the series-Ambulance Ship, Sector General, and Star Healer-return to print in complete and corrected editions, including a sequence ("Spacebird") omitted from previous American editions of Ambulance Ship. The volume is introduced by Hugo-winning SF writer and critic David Langford.

True, the insectile empath, Dr. Prilicla, would be with him–and so would the eminently desirable Nurse Murchison–but it was definately a comedown for a Senior Physican of his status to be conscripted as part of a first-aid team for disabled spacefarers.
Sector General 5
The incredible floating intergalactic hospital, where exotic beings receive treatment from equally exotic doctors and nurses. Each new species brings new problems, but no case is too big, too small, too hopeless – or too weird – for Sector General.
Accident: A spaceship crashes and two war heroes must decide how many – and which – victims can be saved…
Star Healer 6
Sector Twelve General Hospital had a staff of thousands divided among sixty or so intelligent species. Every day it treated alien illnesses of baffling complexity…
