[@bellastarmartin4601]

Hi,your video was really helpful:)Great explanation for each book.Just wondering which book would recommend for a student who wants to include it in their personal statement to show "they have done extra reading".I am in y12 and I am consider doing medicine.I was thinking of starting with 'Do No Harm'.

When breathe becomes air - this is a 'painful' book to read.. I teared in the end. 10/10 book!!! Being Mortal - changed my perspective of medicine! Read it and changed the way I viewed my volunteering at hospital and subsequently how I tackled interview qns. And many other of those books u said! Really helpful read to expand and change ur perspective. Not exaggerating, but I definitely owe it to them for helping me get into medical school!! btw, Atul Gawande's books are really good

[@DoctorElliottCarthy]

Being Mortal is a great book

[@atousa5752]

aw yeah I know, the end really hits you!!! and wow, it's amazing that it had such a big impact on you, I'm really excited to finish it and see I make of it too! and you're so right, I think reading is so useful, and I agree with you totally! thank you for sharing your insight!! :)

[@shamithpnandan1156]

Can it be gifted to a dental student Ik it's lame but is it based on purely medical or ethics?

[@lolamae6011]

Trust me I’m a junior doctor is one of my absolute favourites, as is the second book by Adam Kay! Your life in my hands is really interesting, and I just started war doctor last night-loving it so far 😁

[@Jan-yt2re]

Loved this! Found medical books too much med during medicine but a great way to dabble in med during my intercalation this year. When breath becomes air is brilliany and had me in tears! Bought myself This is going to hurt recently. Cant wait to read it!

[@atousa5752]

Aw haha yeah I bet it can get a bit much during med itself hehe, and oh amazing, get ready for a hilarious read!

[@ulakalicinska3223]

This was really useful to hear your opinions on the books and made me decide which ones I want to get, thank you xx

[@victoriavexx3554]

I feel the same way, this helped me a lot 😌

[@onyinyeobudulu3662]

when breath becomes air is sooooo good tho

[@atousa5752]

totally agree!!

[@nagisadies7967]

Really good?

[@mars4485]

@@nagisadies7967 just good

[@Alice-wh7fq]

Really recommend reading breath becomes air. Personally, it gave me open perspectives and lot more...its so good

[@sapnamallysetty8028]

Yes

[@elisarascle6535]

I read "When breath becomes air" and "This is going to hurt" and they were both amazing! I also get very excited over books, ecpecially around this topic, but I have my moments... Sometimes I'll read 4 books in a row and then not read anything for a while... However, I essentially download them as ebooks and I'm sure it's not as enjoyable as having a actual book in your hands...but it's also cheaper :) I almost have every other book yout talked about (also ebooks) so if you have a suggestion on which one to read first! :D I can also recommend "Brain on Fire"! I loved it so much! I don't know if you've heard of it. A movie based on this book was released on Netflix 3 years ago! (beautiful movie btw) It's not a doctor's story, it's a patient's story and it's also a bit like a diary, showing the progression of the disease until she got a treatment and was better She had anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis and EVERY doctor thought it was a psychiatric problem until one doctor finally solved the mystery as she was getting worse and worse. Anyway! Very interesting book! The man who mistook his wife for a hat! A classic by British Neurologist Oliver Sacks (he wrote a lot of other books by the way) ! Very interesting read but can be a little bit complicated sometimes I guess?

[@DoctorElliottCarthy]

Adam Kay's "This is going to hurt" is a great book

[@atousa5752]

Aw I'm so glad you're a book lover too! hehe, and yeah I totally agree about eBooks, easier to carry them around in a way too :) and thank you so much for the recommendations, I will definitely add them to my list! :) and that's fine, complicated isn't a bad thing ;)

[@abdullahfurkanoztas481]

I am from Turkey and do no harm isn’t translated but I am really sure it is a good book Nice video keep up the good work

[@DrAdnan]

I’ll have to check out some of these- good recc’s!

[@danaepinder9110]

Im not sure if you would count this as a medical book but I really enjoyed The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. Its about the lady 'whose cancerous cells became the first immortal human cell line, called HeLa.'

[@atousa5752]

Oh that's such a good book recommendation! I would class it as a medical related book for sure! thank you for this :)

[@maryambarfei1862]

Hey Atousa. I enjoy watching your vids, so different and inspiring 😍 very useful one 👍🏼

[@atousa5752]

I'm glad you do lovely!! :)

[@nagisadies7967]

Thank you for the recommendations.

[@shannonpb1506]

Hey I love reading too and I didn't realise there were so many medical books like that out there (I've just gone and added about 15 books to my wishlist) I would love if you could recommend so book leaning more towards the research, pharma industry of you could thank you

[@atousa5752]

I know right!! I was the same, haha yey for adding more books to the list! and yes I will try and find and put a list together :)

[@fashiontrends1611]

Can a person be a doctor by just reading books😔🙄 Please reply 👇

[@abdullahfurkanoztas481]

Medicine is a science but also it is an art you have to learn some of the things from your teachers

[@ronakshah2192]

Yes please! More book videos 😊 loving all your videos Atousa!

[@ayyo5302]

What books do you recommend for aspiring primary care docs

[@pmorrison2795]

War doctor is absolutely amazing I adored it it was incredibly interesting and I couldn’t put it down I stayed up for hours and hours when I had to be up at seven ( yayyy going to work on no sleep) but honestly no regrets it was actually what sparked my interest in autobiographies on doctors and similar things

[@shishirsrivastav9205]

Hi Atousa I am the author of Rage Against The Dying Of The Light, my debut book that is a combination of fiction and a memoir. The book deals partly with the life of the protagonist as he goes through his journey to become a doctor-his medical college days, and partly deals with my own struggle to save the life of my son from the clutches of a deadly disease. It would be really nice if you could read the book and share your thoughts. If it’s possible please guide me how to go about it.

[@paulinetaylor4966]

I’m a big reader myself maybe I’ll find books like in this video on the medical field or medicine but what genre and what does it go under? If I’m looking for it?

[@sknazibul647]

You should have added fragile lives and knifes edge by Stephen westaby

[@aviewfromthesouth]

[@Bethany959]

Hey Atousa! Can you please do another video or an “update” on how Felix is doing in his PhD?

[@atousa5752]

Hey! Yes I will definitely ask him for an update :)

[@muzmuntss4671]

This is going to hurt- I was almost 2 chapters into the book but i kept feeling like the further I was reading into it the more it was trying to put me off being a doctor. I've always wanted to be a doctor! Everyone says it's a good book- I wanna know does it have light at the end of the book?? Anyone else relate to me and should I continue reading it.. Also thank you so much for the vid loved it!! Xxx

[@sroseblade9732]

Read it. I have read it 3 times because of its power. It has light and dark at the end of the book. If you want to become a doctor then you have to face the realities of the job, Reading this book is just the start.

[@muzmuntss4671]

@@sroseblade9732 Okay I will thanks so much :)

[@hellonafeeshello3225]

Please do suggest some books to carry out research for finding cures of fatal diseases.

[@carolinagomez4744]

Please give link of all those books as pdf in youtube subscription box and google

[@hajarchamseddine7554]

OMG atousa's video about medical books what can i ask more than this!! 😍😍😍 My first medicine related book was when breath becomes air and I fall in love with it. I am currently reading The language of kindness A nurse's story by Christie Watson. It is a novel where Christie tells us about her 20 years experience as a nurse at the NHS telling us about what a mental health nurse can be, pediatrics, critical care, special care baby unit... Life in the wards from a nurse's perspective. Amazing book.

[@atousa5752]

hehe yaay I'm glad we have another book lover here!! and I totally agree, it's a great book, and I hadn't heard of that before so I have definitely added it to my list, I'm sure her story is fascinating! thank you for the suggestion :)

[@hellonafeeshello3225]

Like friends books should be few and well chosen. And you chose the best books religiously on the topic.

[@s_9208]

[@bittulittu2505]

Good vid sis

[@zybrentttalucod6215]

Hey! I'm 12 years old. What book you suggest for field of cardiology, neurology and orthology?

[@caterinavu6620]

I have like half of them on my reading list but yeahh many more added. Thank you Atousa 😊 I would recommend you the book "Why We Hurt" by Frank Vertosick. I think it is the first medical style book I've read and I love it. I guess it's like "do no harm" as the author incorporates neurological diseases some of his patients suffered from.

[@atousa5752]

Aw Amazing!! and you're very welcome lovely! I will also add that to my list, sounds like my sort of book hehe :) thank you!!

Laughter is the best medicine. Phil Street's "Days Out. The Funboy3. A catalogue of ridiculous yarns." Is the funniest book I've read in a long time. I've never felt better since reading it.
