Using narrative interviews with 27 medical doctors, the book examines how their personal values provide motivation and meaning for their work. How do they cope with the various hardships and crises they face in public hospitals? How can other doctors navigate similar issues in their own work? What should medical students know about the reality of medical work, as they stand poised to start their own career journeys? What should medical administrators know about work at the coal-face as they seek to tackle the problems the sector faces? This book offers a rare, personal window into doctors’ views on their own work. The book also provides a useful resource for students and scholars in the fields of medical humanities, public health, the sociology of work, and narrative research.
