When Doctors Become Patients
Klitzman, Robert (Associate Professor of Clinical Psychiatry, Associate Professor of Clinical Psychiatry, Columbia University, USA)
This is the first book to look at the phenomenon of 'wounded healers': doctors who fall ill and become patients themselves. It weaves together intimate, personal interviews with health care providers who have fallen ill, to provide a rich portrait of the psychology of doctors, the nature of human illness, and the pitfalls of our health care system.
