Essential, required reading for doctors and patients alike: A Pulitzer Prize-winning author and one of the world’s premiere cancer researchers reveals an urgent philosophy on the little-known principles that govern medicine—and how understanding these principles can empower us all.
Over a decade ago, when Siddhartha Mukherjee was a young, exhausted, and isolated medical resident, he discovered a book that would forever change the way he understood the medical profession. The book, The Youngest Science, forced Dr. Mukherjee to ask himself an urgent, fundamental question: Is medicine a “science”? Sciences must have laws—statements of truth based on repeated experiments that describe some universal attribute of nature. But does medicine have laws like other sciences?
Dr. Mukherjee has spent his career pondering this question—a question that would ultimately produce some of most serious thinking he would do around the tenets of his discipline—culminating in The Laws of Medicine. In this important treatise, he investigates the most perplexing and illuminating cases of his career that ultimately led him to identify the three key principles that govern medicine.
Brimming with fascinating historical details and modern medical wonders, this important book is a fascinating glimpse into the struggles and Eureka! moments that people outside of the medical profession rarely see. Written with Dr. Mukherjee’s signature eloquence and passionate prose, The Laws of Medicine is a critical read, not just for those in the medical profession, but for everyone who is moved to better understand how their health and well-being is being treated. Ultimately, this book lays the groundwork for a new way of understanding medicine, now and into the future.
Siddhartha Mukherjee is a cancer physician and researcher. He is an assistant professor of medicine at Columbia University and a staff cancer physician at Columbia University Medical Center. A Rhodes scholar, he graduated from Stanford University, University of Oxford, Harvard Medical School. He has published articles in Nature, The New England Journal of Medicine, The New York Times, and The New Republic. He lives in New York with his wife and daughters.

Indeed more like a 1-hour talk than a book
评分A very useful insight into medicine for a medical student, the way the author describes the medical cases is quite fascinating, had a lot of fun reading this little brochure
评分It’s easy to make perfect decisions with perfect information. Medicine asks you to make perfect decisions with imperfect information.
评分比起作者的其他书来说,这本就是一本小册子,谈话的风格,但是不失一读/听。
评分有一個視角是正規出版物中罕見的東西。
本书让我感受到了出版者想让它成为一本“书”而不是一份小册子的努力(纸厚,白边多,每页上面还要摘录一句文章内容)~不过毕竟书的字数少,不这样做估计太薄了卖不出去。 下面是正经话 书内容不多,字数也很少,并没有很深入的探讨分析医学哲学或者伦理学,而是直指医学这门...
评分 评分不确定性在医学里面放大了太多,通过概率统计的原理来思考着能够治愈疾病有多大的程度,还有每种药物对人的机体产生的影响也是千差万别,当医生在治愈病人时那种状态恰恰也反应出来病人对疾病的态度和内心的渴望。 每个医生治疗病人的疾病时,恰恰不是疾病本身而是病人本身身上...
评分这是一本适合实习医生看的书。 当作者提出:“医学真的是科学吗?”这个问题,我真的惊了。起初阅读是将这本书当做简单的科普书,作为一名非医学专业的学生,对于不了解的东西,怀着一种莫名的敬畏,又或者说是对于医生天然的尊敬。这本书读完之后:我的问号更多了! “在医学中...
