Beyond the library of textbooks runs another shelf of medicine — one made up of novels, essays, and memoirs that explore the field not through knowledge, but through lived experience. These are books about care when cure is no longer possible, about error and accountability, about bodies that fail and minds that endure, about limits and the many ways people push against them.
For many physicians, these works prove more formative than entire courses. We've gathered 10 titles every doctor should read at least once - tap the link full list: https://t.co/MGdD1J3gGI
