I definitely recommend reading The Med School Survival Guide if you’re a med student, or thinking about going to medical school. It’s an easy read, and I found it to be very motivational.


The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat is a fascinating collection of stories about people suffering from very strange neurological disorders. It’s written by acclaimed neurologist, Oliver Sacks. This is one of my favorite books of all time.


This is an excellent book written for laypersons, but equally good if you’re a physician or med student. Learn about the common cognitive errors that are made by doctors.
