Synopsis:

Jerome Groopman, a regular essayist for The New Yorker, examines the oft-neglected subject of the underlying psychology that drives doctors to make decisions--and to make mistakes! In a society where doctors are revered as nearly godlike and patients regularly receive their diagnosis with total faith, this account, which includes the honest appraisals of numerous physicians (including himself), is certainly eye-opening.

Book Reviews:

"[A] direct and honest voice...drives the narratives of this remarkable book. Here is [Dr. Jerome] Groopman at the peak of his form as a physician and a writer."

New York Times Book Review - Michael Crichton (04/01/2007)
