The Soul of Medicine

The Soul of Medicine: Tales from the Bedside by Sherwin B. Nuland is a collection of various doctors' stories that the author retells and then sometimes reflects on. The stories run the gamut from weird cases (e.g. a young man with lungs full of stool) to mistakes that doctors have made to special doctor/patient relationships. It was a quick read and I'd recommend it, especially if you have an interest in medicine-- which, looking back at the books I've read, I guess I do :)
