Infos

An accomplished physician and medical educator looks back across his professional life, realizing that finding meaning was the key to happiness. Using his poetry, essays, and technical medical reports as mileposts along the journey, he makes the case that a true generalist takes on each new challenge with a search for meaning. From the start of family centered obstetrics through design of the international space station and covering rural practices producing remarkable stories, opportunities found him that provided meaning at every turn. His perspectives on medical practice and the importance of faith, hope, empathy and curiosity are truly timeless. His essays written early in this century still ring true, and contain important lessons for those making health systems decisions today. From the setting of a free clinic to an inpatient locked psychiatry unit, his patients both provide and accept forgiveness. This book is good reading for anyone seeking meaning in work.
