About this book

Doctors' Stories by Hunter, Kathryn Montgomery. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780691015057.

A patients job is to tell the physician what hurts, and the physicians job is to fix it. But how does the physician know what is wrong? What becomes of the patients story when the patient becomes a case? Addressing readers on both sides of the patient-physician encounter, Kathryn Hunter looks at medicine as an art that relies heavily on telling and interpreting a story--the patients story of illness and its symptoms.
