This book was written by an E.R. doc, who is a hero-in-medicine to my now-E.R. doc son. So enthusiastic was our son about this book, that he sent two copies to us, so both dad and mom could be reading and marking up at the same time. Thanks, my child! It really was that good!
With a foreword full of Dr. Hippocrates, and chapters like: Secrets from the House of Medicine: 1-We Don’t Know, 2-It Doesn’t Work, 3-We Don’t Agree, 4-We Don’t Talk, 5-We Prefer Tests, 6-We Won’t Unlearn (The Pseudoaxioms), 7-We’re Missing the Meaning (The Placebo Paradox), 8-You’re a Number (The NNT), and 9-A New Old Paradigm, illustrated with examples from his own experience, and filled with content about abdominal pain, allergies, mammograms and so, so much more – I found this an un-put-down-able book.
