Making a Good Doctor

Sources of Strength and Wisdom

Board Review Series

BRS Pediatrics

This book is one person's experience of being gradually transformed from a nervous student into a professorial physician. It will make compelling reading for anyone who's been to a doctor.

What is it like to become a doctor? What do you have to go through to be the person who handles sick bodies, who makes life-and-death decisions, who labours in a system with unyielding demands, who daily faces the emotional and physical traumas of others, and who at the same time must make a positive impression on both patients and colleagues? This book is about what becomes of the person who becomes a doctor. It describes one individual's experience, from 1966 onwards, of being gradually transformed from a nervous student into a professorial physician. The book is not a memoir in the ordinary sense, being less concerned with what the author did than with what education and medical practice did to him. 
Each of the book's chapters focuses on a theme, creating a narrative that is roughly chronological, beginning with the perspectives of a junior medical student and ending with reflections on a doctor's two major 'crafts': diagnosis and treatment. In reflecting on a particular span of years, the book's story is in constant conversation with its historical context, which is a dimension that medical orthodoxy scarcely notices. Reflections are shadowed by theory, but this is not an analytical essay, driving towards specific conclusions and prescriptions. It is a piece of provocative and entertaining literature about experiences and dilemmas that mater to everyone. 
A doctor's education looks at first sight like a straightforward technical training, but 're-membering' it as a personal experience creates a new and disturbing picture, a blend of joys, absurdities and frustrations. The author observes his younger self's efforts to communicate and to regulate feelings in the prescribed way and begins to see that to become a doctor is to be at the mercy of almost irresistible pressures. He picks up habits by mimicking the teachers, with sometimes disastrous results. He is vulnerable to the power of medicine's rhetoric and feels the need to be 'the right stuff'. Communication, and even empathy, are made to seem like performances in which the doctor's self need play no part. Any other way of being a doctor is unimaginable. 
Hospital medicine figures in the book as a loveable yet limited universe. Doctors in the 1960s, as now, were focused on disease and had little to say about suffering, let alone death. They were, and still are, curiously silent about healing, recovery and rehabilitation. From within the hospital, people's ordinary lives were invisible. Medicine's hold on a young doctor's imagination makes it difficult to develop a coherent concept of human nature. For their own purposes, psychiatrists, psychologists, neurologists and general physicians and surgeons create deceptive boundaries that few patients would want. Neurologists appear to be technicians of the brain, psychiatrists of the mind and other doctors of the body.

Re-Membering a Medical Education

Becoming a Doctor

This extraordinary book is packed with precious gems on ancient wisdom, ageless truth, health advice, and beauty. It is a distillation of years of dedicated self-study, teaching, and practice by two internationally acclaimed tai chi masters. The reader is not only being welcomed and guided into the world of an inward journey to self-discovery in order to attain holistic health, but is also feasted with a rich offering of beautiful paintings and sublime poetries. As diverse as they may first appear outwardly, they serve to convey the same message. Words, images, and sounds are mere sparks that light our imagination. The goal is of course to attain the profound understanding of self-study, in which the goal and the path are one and the same. It is the basic right of any individual wanting to attain holistic wellness and to enjoy the fullness of life. This can be attained through the practice of mind-body-thought-chi interactions, as explained by the authors. These authors are now sharing their secrets for achieving optimal health and youthful longevity with the mind and body integration. When the essence of thought and Chi are synchronized and finely tuned with the rhythms of nature, perfect harmony is established. There is no greater alignment with nature than when the essence of life's processes are in peak performance.

The objective of the book is to provide advanced topics ranging from fatigue failure and wear of biomaterials, lasers in medicine, 3D printing of scaffolds, tissue engineering, stem cells to case studies like hip implants, heart valves left ventricular pumps and coronary stents, to name a few. It is hoped by providing such advanced topics and case studies the reader may have a deeper understanding on the design process, materials selection, regulatory compliance and an multidisciplinary approach to designing materials for medical devices. Part 1: Fundamentals of this book already provided a basic understanding on the engineering and processing aspects of biomaterials used in medical applications. Of paramount importance is the tripartite relationship between material properties, processing methods and design. As the target audiences cover a wide interdisciplinary field, each chapter is written with a detailed background so that audience of another discipline will be able to understand. For the more knowledgeable reader, a detailed list of references is included.
