问题     As a boy Sanders was much influenced by books about the sea but in fact by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor rather than a sailor. His father was a dentist and as a result Sanders had the opportunity of meeting doctors socially. When he was fourteen he was already hanging around the dispensary of the local doctor where he was supposed to be helping to wrap up medicine bottles,but was actually trying to listen to the conversations with patients taking place in the next room.
    During the war Sanders served in the Navy as a surgeon. "That was the happiest time of my life doing major surgery. I was dealing with very real suffering and on the whole making a success of it. " In Rhodes he taught the country people simple facts about medicine. He saw himself as a lifesaver. He had proved his skill to himself and his ability to take decisions. With this proof came the firm belief that those who lived simply and those who were dependent upon him possessed qualities and a secret of living which he lacked.
    After the war he married and chose practice deep in the English countryside,working under an old doctor who was much liked in the district but who hated the sight of blood and believed that the secret of medicine was faith. This gave the younger man plenty of opportunity to go on working as a lifesaver.
