Parodies of Healthcare

I really liked this book for its satirical images that depict the relationships between the healthcare provider, the patient, and the healthcare environment. I thought that most of the images were very interesting in a Norman Rockwell sort of way. Being a nurse, I didn't appreciate the handmaiden portrayal of the nurses in the "Nurse" picture. I thought it accurately captured the art of nursing, but focused too heavily on it. Much of the public already sees nurses as "handmaidens" to doctors or worse waitresses - an image we actively try to get away from. This is the 21st century and all...

Perez on Medicine--The Whimsical Art of Jose S. PerezThis bo

It is a little difficult to review a picture book but I will give it a try! Perez takes the Doctors profession and adds alot of humor by drawing whimsical pictures in action. My favorite was the ophthalmologist because of the wonderess display of the eye chart.All of the pictures were extremely cute and to the point. You need not be in the medical profession to enjoy this book and if you are a collector of art I think this book would fit right into your library. It would make a very interesting book for the table tops in livings rooms and dens. It also makes the best gifts for new graduates of the Medical field. I truly enjoy looking through this wonderful book and also enjoy giving it as gifts.
