Complications: A Surgeon's Notes on an Imperfect Science by Atul Gawande. This is an interesting collection of essays, and provided for a good discussion at our book group last night. It addresses things such as mistakes made by doctors and how it can happen, if pain is physical or psychological and if patients should be able to make their own decisions.
