Resumen del Editor
The sequel to the best-selling and highly acclaimed The House of God
Years after the events of The House of God, the Fat Man has been given leadership over a new Future of Medicine Clinic at what is now only Man's 4th Best Hospital, and has persuaded Dr. Roy Basch and some of his intern cohorts to join him to teach a new generation of interns and residents. In a medical landscape dominated by computer screens and corrupted by money, they have one goal: to make medicine humane again.
What follows is a mesmerizing, heartbreaking, and hilarious exploration of how the health-care industry, and especially doctors, have evolved over the past 30 years.
Reseñas de la Crítica
“Samuel Shem has challenged generations of doctors in his writing to think deeply about why they chose medicine. His novels illuminate the humanistic core of clinical care, and serve as a bulwark against a system increasingly characterized by avarice and anonymity.” (Jerome Groopman, MD, author of How Doctors Think)
“If you want to know why the doctor spends all visit looking at a computer instead of you, and if you want to know how the doctor feels about it, this is the book for you: a mordantly funny tour through modern medicine with a powerful prescription for how to change." (Bill McKibben, best-selling author of The End of Nature and Radio Free Vermont)
“As he did in The House of God, Samuel Shem provides a bitter, caustic and overdue update on the cold and bureaucratic world that awaits the sick and the dying if they are lucky enough to be able to afford it.” (Arthur Caplan, professor of Bioethics at New York University Langone Medical Center)

"Something is murdering my men." Thus reads the message received from a Nazi commander stationed in a small castle high in the remote Transylvanian Alps. Invisible and silent, the enemy selects one victim per night, leaving the bloodless and mutilated corpses behind to terrify its future victims. When an elite SS extermination squad is dispatched to solve the problem, the men find something that's both powerful and terrifying. Panicked, the Nazis bring in a local expert on folklore - who just happens to be Jewish - to shed some light on the mysterious happenings.

Historia
Adam Stern was a student at a state medical school before being selected to train as a psychiatry resident at one of the most prestigious programs in the country. His new and initially intimidating classmates were high achievers from the Ivy League and other elite universities. Faculty raved about the group as though the residency program had won the lottery, nicknaming them “The Golden Class”, but would Stern ever prove that he belonged? In his memoir, Stern pulls back the curtain on the intense and emotionally challenging lessons he and his fellow doctors learned.

Historia
In an idyllic Los Angeles neighborhood, where generations enjoy deep roots in old homes, the O’Rourke family fits right in. Miriam and Craig are both artists and their four children carry on the legacy. When their teenage son, Nick, is diagnosed with schizophrenia, a tumultuous decade ensues in which the family careens off the conventional course. Like the 10 Biblical plagues, they are hit by one catastrophe after another: violence, evictions, arrests, a suicide attempt, a near-drowning - even cancer and a brain tumor - play against the backdrop of a wild teenage bacchanal.

In the late 1990s, a young physician in Albuquerque, New Mexico, published a stunning memoir of his experiences in the highly charged world of the ER. Presented in a series of powerful, poetic vignettes, The Blood of Strangers became an instant classic. Now, over two decades later, Dr. Frank Huyler delivers another dispatch from the trenches—this time from the perspective of middle age. In portraits visceral, haunting, sometimes surreal, Huyler reveals the gritty reality of medicine practiced on the razor’s edge between life and death.

Der junge Arzt Dr. Roy Basch verbringt sein erstes Praxisjahr im "House of God". Voller Enthusiasmus und Erwartungen, beseelt von dem Wunsch, zu helfen und zu heilen, muss er im Alltag bald erkennen, dass die Medizin ein dreckiges Geschäft ist. Verstört und desillusioniert versuchen er und seine jungen Kollegen, sich einen letzten Rest an Nächstenliebe zu bewahren. Drastisch und makaber stellt Shem einen bis heute vollkommen normalen Krankenhausalltag dar, in dem ein einzelner Mensch wenig, Profit dagegen alles zählt.

Historia
On rounds at Mount Misery, it's not always easy for Basch to tell the patients from the doctors: Errol Cabot, the drug cowboy whose practice provides him with guinea pigs for his imaginative prescription cocktails . . . Blair Heiler, the world expert on borderlines (a diagnosis that applies to just about everybody) . . . A. K. Lowell, née Aliyah K. Lowenschteiner, whose Freudian analytic technique is so razor sharp it prohibits her from actually speaking to patients . . . And Schlomo Dove, the loony, outlandish shrink accused of having sex with a beautiful, well-to-do female patient.

Historia
In medical school, Matt McCarthy dreamed of being a different kind of doctor - the sort of mythical, unflappable physician who could reach unreachable patients. But when a new admission to the critical care unit almost died his first night on call, he found himself scrambling. Visions of mastery quickly gave way to hopes of simply surviving hospital life, where confidence was hard to come by and no amount of med school training could dispel the terror of facing actual patients.

All too true
First, I love listening to Sean Runette (the voice of Roland Merullo's Buddha series - also first rate).
As a health care provider with over 50 years experience, I loved this. The decline of the American medical system is all too real. I have my own set of horror stories about insurance companies, billing errors, and the worst of all: electronic medical records! Yes, it takes 65 clicks to write a simple prescription!
While this is a fictional tale, the situations are all too real, and getting worse. The almightly dollar reigns supreme, and we are not patients but customers, often unable to decipher the maze of medical/legal information.
The stories do wander a bit but overall, this is a great snapshot of medical practice today.
I think this quote from one of docs is the summary of the medical dilemma today: Their mission is monetary!

Fantastic sequel to the House of God
Lovely book with a bittersweet ending. Talks a lot of truth about modern medicine using the characters of our very beloved first book. It’s lovely to see how they all turned out.

Incredible Story of Doctors versus Admin
Phenomenal book about doctor trying to bring humanity back into medicine. Definitely, a different style compared to his original House of God but still good. Great read.

Outstanding
Amazing sequel to House of God. A modern day telling of Knights of the Round Table. As a medical student this was a must read. Thank you Samuel Shem for everything you've done and I hope to hear more in the future!

Nailed it!
Once again Shem gives readers a view into the world of the physicians who want to care for patients but instead are at the mercy of the c-suite. Corporate greed, the strain of EMR on providers, and staying human and connected in medicine are explored. Fantastic!

Great stuff
I loved House of God, and I loved this story as well. 40 years and medicine has changed a lot, but I do not think it is for the better. It is nice to imagine that WE are not alone as healthcare providers.

Modern spin on "House of God"
I remain partial to the original "House of God," but it was nice to see Shem return with the modern update.

sad satire of acute medical care in US
Sad but accurate commentary of current US health care system. Calls a spade a spade here.
