Description:

Despite its intentionally misleading title, this book collects the life stories of over 90 experts from an enormous range of medical specialties. Each of them presents an account of the medical path he or she has chosen. Each section gives the reader a unique insight into what it's like to work in a particular field. The information is presented in a entertaining and accessible manner and enables the reader to make a quick comparison of the different specialties based on the informal insight these personal stories provide.
