Discover the profound impact of storytelling and narrative in the medical field with, "Medicine on Fire: A Narrative Travelogue," by Arthur Lazarus, MD, MBA. The book is divided into three sections: Section 1: Narrative of Knowledge Section 2: Narrative of Education, Training & Practice Section 3: Narrative of Illness Through this fascinating collection of essays, clinicians, patients and caregivers will learn about the healing power of writing medical narratives. Drawing from psychiatric practice and encounters with various health systems, Dr. Lazarus provides unique insight into the "medical-industrial complex," inspiring patients to build repertoires of narratives based on personal interactions with physicians, hospitals and payors. For physicians, this book serves as a primer of narrative medicine and a reminder of the healing benefits of storytelling. The 42 essays explore and articulate important themes impacting contemporary practice, including moral injury, trauma, discrimination, and a devotion to evidenced-based practice to the exclusion of the "art" of medicine. The essays also discuss how to plan for a narrative practice, recognizing that great stories happen to those who tell them.
