Well-written, gripping, thoughtful, thorough investigation into the tragic and seemingly unavoidable events in the life of a sick young girl and her loving family. Everyone wanted the best, but it all went terribly wrong. A compelling example of why we all need to keep learning from each other.

7.How Doctors Think by: Jerome Groopman March 12, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $15.95 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $10.85 You Save: $5.10 (32%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $6.75
I am an R.N., and thought I knew how my fellow medical people, the doctors, thought. They acted in unusual ways at times, but I didn't know why. This book is a portal into the ways that the people who hold our lives in their hands, come to some of the decisions that they make. I recommend it highly to all. You don't have to be in it (the medical profession) to be aware. At some time, sooner or later, we and our families and friends become ill. At that time, we all need doctors. It is good to know a little more of their training, and what might make them tick in a certain way. It is well-written, and makes many valid points.

I thought this book was very interesting and informative to a pre-med student. I'm not in med schools yet, but love to read about medical related things.

9.Better: A Surgeon's Notes on Performance by: Atul Gawande January 22, 2008
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $14.00 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $11.20 You Save: $2.80 (20%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $5.97
I thought Atul Gawande's last book, Complications, was one of the best books written on the medical profession in a long while. In it, Gawande showed a deep respect and sympathy for patients while trying to be clear about what would help the medical establishment do a better job from a doctor's point of view. In this book, he covers some of the same ground but, as his title implies, here he is focused specifically on what it takes to do things better as a doctor. The chapters here are grouped under three big heading which Gawande feels are the categories of improvement: diligence, doing right, and ingenuity. Within that, he tells some fascinating stories. Under diligence, he describes how simple persistence can improve performance significantly. For example, simple compliance ... Read More

10.Nurse's Pocket Guide: Diagnoses, Prioritized Interventions, and Rationales (Nurses Pocket Guide) by: Marilynn E. Doenges, Mary Frances Moorhouse, Alice C. Murr 2008-02

I should have paid attention to the other reviewer. There are very few rationales in this book. If you are a student and need to provide a rationale for every diagnosis, then this book is NOT for you. I don't understand why the word "rationale" is even in the title. I think it's some kind of ploy to get someone to buy the book. The book is good for Nanda Diagnosis listings. It's nice and compact. But if you need individual rationales, you're better off getting a care plan book. The author even tells the reader to do that in the foreword. Too late for me, I bought the book already. I'm going to return it today.
