My initial exposure into the field of medical literature

In general I am a mystery and true crime buff. However, a friend of mine whose taste in books I have always admired, strongly suggested I read this book, and I promptly did. It was difficult for me to put down as I found it to be utterly fascinating. Dr. Hellerstein with his literary prowess gives an extraordinary picture of the history of medicine in America (1864 to present) by utilizing his own family background. And furthermore, on a personal level, it includes the author's struggle as he prepares to continue the tradition of healing set by his ancestors. It illustrates the theory that what we truly and earnestly aspire to be, that in some ways we are. A MUST READ for everyone!
