Biography
Adam Staten is a General Practitioner, Milton Keynes, UK with a specialist interest in GP training and medical education.
I enjoyed this book. The issues it presents are faced by everyone in medicine, and it is comforting to be able to discuss them. Even more comforting are the case studies later in the book; these scenarios are relatable, and the
solutions/changes are attainable. The book broadened my view on career options. Medical students through senior staff can benefit from this book.
