Ernest Joachim Joseph Borges FRCS (1909 - 3 March 1969) was an Indian oncologist and cancer surgeon known for his contributions to the field of oncology in India.

[1] Borges joined Tata Memorial Hospital in Bombay, where he served as a chief surgeon for nearly three decades.

His expertise in esophageal cancer surgery, particularly noteworthy during a time when few dared to undertake such procedures, earned him acclaim both nationally and internationally.

He was instrumental in establishing Tata Memorial Hospital as a premier institution for cancer treatment in India.

[4] In 1966, he was honored with the Padma Shri by the President of India, Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, in recognition of his contributions to the field of medicine.

The book was released in January 2023 and covers all aspects of Borges' life and lifestyle, including his personal and professional relationships, his research, and his contributions to the field of oncology.
