Comments on the book "Direct Red" - A Surgeon's View of Her Life-or-Death Profession by Gabriel Weston
As the subtitle suggests, this book is about a medical doctor's training and experiences. My experience is that reading such books, especially by female doctors, is a great help in, at least, thinking about the medical side of my own life. The fact that the author is British is, perhaps, additionally interesting from an American point of view.
Gabriel Weston clearly states that her book is a "mixture of things that have happened and <> might happen," yet "entirely authentic," she hopes.
Some events seem to stand out as invented. Besides, the author was very careful to protect her confidentiality to her patients, as well as to her colleagues.
