The Making of a Surgeon in the 21st Century

Rating:
Summary: Superb!
Review: A nicely written mélange of exceptional egotism and abuse; astounding resolve and will that has no mercy for oneself; memorable characters; compassion; the inevitable, perhaps secret, humility of human limits; hilarity; and no apology. All of it cradled in the final authority of nature and the inconceivable habit of challenging death.
Miller entertainingly depicts the grueling culture of medicine and the making of a surgeon in our society.
I recommend highly.

Summary: The best "inside the world of medicine" book I've ever read
Review: Amazing, is all I can say. It's like a diary of hell, that makes you laugh. I'm in the medical field, and everything in this book is absolutely real. I genuinely couldn't put it down. If you want to know what REALLY goes on inside a hospital, this is the book for you.

Summary: Say What!?
Review: Craig. I just typed a long note to you, in this forum. I can't, uh, seem to find it. If it shows up later, fine. If not call 260-436-6667, hit 0, ask for me, and give the name of the Kramer-Muslim we worked with. My staff will find me and I wil be happy to catch up with you.

Tehhdy.
