If you haven't read at least one biography of Sigmund Freud you are not prepared for the new medicine. Before Freud humans actually put mental patients on display like in a zoo . This took place in England after the London fire. Still today many feel mental illness is not about illness because the social disorder is created by friends and family.

Try Sherwin Nuland's books.
His most autobiographical is 'Lost in America' about how he became a doctor.
Two other good ones of his are 'How We Die' and 'Doctors: The Biography of Medicine'.
I'm not a doctor or med student, but I find his books fascinating and accessible.

Let me suggest you something different. I think Noah Gordon´s books are fascinating. I love "The Physician", " Shaman" and "Doctor Cole". They are not autobiographical but it will give some new insights to the way medicine may be handled.

Read about Dr. Ben Carson...something recent will probably be best. But even before the most recent events will be spectacular.
