The Soul of Medicine: Tales from the Bedside by Sherwin B. NulandMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I was very confused reading this book--somewhere I missed the part that Nuland isn't the author of all the chapters, though he occasionally adds commentary. Instead, each one is written from the point of view of a different doctor, telling a story about their career in medicine. Some of those stories were fascinating, some very sad, some self-serving, and one is very disturbing about a doctor who was a complete scam artist.
Good concept, flawed final product.
