House of God
Samuel Shem
The medical hierarchy of "The House of God" is like a pyramid - a lot at the bottom and one at the top. Roy Basch, a Rhodes scholar, thinks differently, until he meets Hyper Hooper, out to win the most post-mortems of the year award, or Molly, the nurse with the crash helmet.

I read this book as i was advised it was "like catch22 but with doctors". And its true. Its hilarious and sad and scary and fun all at the same time.
The book tells the story of a doctor, from his first days as a nervous newby till the time that he leaves the profession as an old pro.
If you have ever thought of becoming a doctor read this book, infact even if you know a doctor or have ever even seen a hospital then you should read this book.
Brilliant stuff.
