Book
The power of kindness : why empathy is essential in everyday life / Dr. Brian Goldman, MD.
Based, in part, on Dr. Brian Goldman's personal search around the world, from Canada to Brazil, India to Japan, to rediscover and rekindle his own capacity for caring by meeting with and learning from those whose stories teach and inspire us to become our best selves. With his trademark honesty and keen powers of observation, Goldman looks at how he and his colleagues struggle in the fast-paced, high-stress world of hospital medicine to be kind to patients and families.
