Five Patients by Michael Crichton, Jeffery Hudson

hopeful informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

I assumed that it would be focused primarily on the stories of the five patients discussed, but it’s more focused on five discussions about the medical field using the five patients’ stories as a jumping board. It is still really interesting and provides a lot of insight into how the field has improved and what we still need to fix (as of the 1970s). Very interesting looking at what we knew we needed to fix then and realizing that we have yet to find a real solution to a lot of the issues.
