Complications: A Surgeon's Notes on an Imperfect Science
by Atul Gawande
I really enjoyed Gawande's perspective. His struggles and uncertainties within human medical practice are just like those I experience in veterinary medicine. He is very realistic about the fact that we simply cannot know everything, nor guess correctly all of the time, nor even be sure whether our choice was right or wrong after all is said and done. An interesting book that is accessible for those with no medical background but also does not overly sugarcoat for those who are involved in medicine. So gripping, in fact, that I didn't realize I was nearing the end until all of a sudden I was at the endnotes.
