It Is The Humanity In Medicine That Has Inspired The Pens Of Countless Writers, And That Has Now Been Captured In This Remarkable Anthology Of Medical Literature.This Newly Expanded Edition Of On Doctoring Is An Extraordinary Collection Of Stories, Poems, And Essays Written By Physicians And Nonphysicians Alike Works That Eloquently Record What It Is Like To Be Sick, To Be Cured, To Lose, Or To Triumph. Drawing On The Full Spectrum Of Human Emotions, The Editors Have Included Selections From Such Important And Diverse Writers As Anton Chekhov, W. H. Auden, William Carlos Williams, John Keats, John Donne, Robert Coles, Pablo Neruda, Ernest Hemingway, Raymond Carver, Alice Walker, Kurt Vonnegut, And Abraham Verghese. Among The New Authors Included In This Edition Are Rainer Maria Rilke, Lisel Mueller, And May Sarton.In This Era Of Managed Healthcare, When Medicine Is Becoming More Institutionalized And Impersonal, This Book Recaptures The Breadth And The Wonder Of The Medical Profession. Presenting The Issues, Concerns, And Challenges Facing Doctors And Patients Alike, On Doctoring Is At Once Illuminating And Provocative, A Compelling Record Of The Human Spirit.
