<p>This dark but hilarious novel of life and death in an American hospital has been described as "<i>Catch-22</i> with stethoscopes."</p>
<p><b>Why did it make such a big impression? </b> "In hindsight, it gave me a preview of what residency and the practice of medicine would be like," said a gastroenterologist. "There is a lot of cynicism and skepticism in medicine and a lot of dissatisfaction with the job. There are also many older people in medicine who don't believe in work-life balance. Also, there is still rampant discrimination towards females. The book portrays all of this. When I first read it, I was an idealistic medical student who was going to save the world. Little did I know that most of my practice would be charting and fighting with insurance companies."</p>
