description: In Body Language physicians and medical students chronicle their challenging, often harrowing experiences. The anthology is broken into six Medical Student, First Year; Second Year; Clinical Years; Intern; Resident; and Attending. Other anthologies have featured poems about medicine and healthcare, but the approach of this collection―poems written by doctors-in-training proceeding step-by-step through the medical training experience―is unique in medical literature. By presenting physicians who are also skilled poets addressing a diverse range of medical situations, Body Language offers fascinating insights into the inner world of people who regularly face life-and-death decisions.
