How Doctors Think by Jerome Groopman.

It is a doctor book rather than a nurse book but I'm enjoying it so much I wanted to share and this seemed the most logical place. I also think this thread is worth bumping up.

A doctor book but good, The House of God by Samuel Shem. Critical Care (fiction) by Richard Dooling.

For something alittle different:

Trauma Junkie : Memoirs of an Emergency Flight Nurse by Janice Hudson.

I LOVED this book when I first read it.

I've got to second this. Wonderful book - definitely a can't-put-it-down.

Not so nursing, but engrossing nevertheless: Just Here Trying To Save A Few Lives by Pamela Grim, MD (emergency medicine).

Last month, I read a fantastic novel by an RN. It is No Other Medicine by Gail Ghinga Hallas, RN. I downloaded it from Amazonto Kindle on my laptop. She can write and just knows nursing. I hate when non-nurses write about nurses. They don't get it.

In the book there were good and bad nurses, good and bad doctors - just like real life!

Her website says she is coming out with another book soon. I can't wait!

Disclosure: No, I don't know her.
