A
Not Entirely Benign Procedure: Four Years as a Medical Student
Perri Klass
Perri
Klass not only graduated from Harvard Medical School, she lived
to write about it. Written from the perspective of a woman and mother
in a field dominated by men and masculine sensibilities, this provocative
book lifts the curtain on medical school to show how doctors are
really trained. With insight and irony, Klass describes how she
learned to deal with patients, blood, and hospital politics during
her grueling clinical years. She depicts the fears, neuroses, and
commitment to medicine that medical students feel, yet may be afraid
to admit.
