Here’s everything you need to know about this book in one page:
It’s time to leave Medicine. It’s time. You’ve been feeling this for a while and been working overtime to drown out the quiet but persistent voice that’s been telling you the score for a while now. A long while. You’ve argued with it, rationalised your arguments against it, and hidden behind your white coat and the weight of public expectations. Think of the patients. Think of all the sacrifices made on your behalf. How could you be so selfish? Etcetera Etcetera. But regardless, that voice inside you hasn’t changed her tune. It’s time to leave Medicine. It’s time to leave Medicine. You know this, but you worry about the implications and about having to figure out all the steps before you begin. You don’t. The only thing you need to do is accept the inconvenient truth: it’s time to leave Medicine. Once you embrace that and take a first step towards exploring it, all the other steps will start to reveal themselves. Reading this book is that first step on the journey.
