   The book Dean Sutherland asked about which "is set in a far future Earth
whose sole export . . . is its medical technology"  is "Star Surgeon" by
Alan E. Nourse.  I have no idea if it's still in print.  I first read it in
a hardcover edition borrowed from the library manymany years ago.  I own a
paperback copy which I bought around 1972, which I think was published by the
Scholastic Book Service.  I think there's another book of the same title by
either Leinster or White, which this one is not to be confused with.
