<p>I suggest that you guys read the following books:</p>
<p>Harvard Med</p>
<p>The House of God</p>
<p>Great books for those interested (and even not interested) in medicine</p>
<p>I would add:</p>
<p>The Making of a Surgeon</p>
<p>Complications</p>
<p>This is more of a biography, but I've heard the book is pretty insightful. (Because the surgeon it depicts is a Christian, it has some references to spirituality and God, a forewarning for those who tend to keep their distance from those topics.): </p>
<p>Gifted Hands </p>
<p>It is about the life of Dr. Benjamin Carson, a world-renowned neurosurgeon who seperated craniopagus ( ok, I don't think that's the correct spelling...) and how he became a neurosurgeon.</p>
<p>I'm starting to read the book "White Coat". It is about a woman's experience at Harvard Medical School. It's very good so far!</p>
<p>The Healing Blade by Edward Sylvester
When the Air Hits Your Brain by Frank Vertosick</p>
<p>are 2 very interesting about neursurgery</p>
