The New York Times published an interview with Dr. Robert Martensen, an emergency room and intensive care physician who has worked in emergency rooms and academic medical centers, and as such has witnessed the changes in medicine, for better and for worse. He has a new book called A Life Worth Living: A Doctor’s Reflections on Illness in a High-Tech Era.
The conversation is an interesting perspective on the changes in the medical field, from a physician who has seen it firsthand. He also makes interesting comments about why physicians should study literature in addition to science.
