BLUE COLLAR, BLUE SCRUBS: THE MAKING OF A SURGEON

Book ID/图书代码: 06830008B29153

English Summary/英文概要: It looked for a while like Michael Collins would spend his life breaking concrete and throwing rocks for the Vittorio Scalese Construction Company. He liked the work and he liked the pay. But a chance remark by one of his coworkers made him realize that he wanted to involve himself in something bigger, something more meaningful than crushing rocks and drinking beer.
In his acclaimed first memoir, Hot Lights, Cold Steel, Collins wrote passionately about his four-year surgical residency at the prestigious Mayo Clinic. Blue Collar, Blue Scrubs turns back the clock, taking readers from his days as a construction worker to his entry into medical school, expertly infusing his journey to become a doctor with humanity, compassion and humor. From the first time he delivers a baby to being surrounded by death and pain on a daily basis, Collins compellingly writes about how medicine makes him confront, in a very deep and personal way, the nature of God and suffering—and how delicate life can be.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 邁克爾·柯林斯曾經以為他將一生搬磚與混凝土為伍,為建設公司賣命。他喜歡這個工作與薪水。但是在一個因緣際會下,一個同事的評語讓他知道他想作比敲碎石頭和喝啤酒更大,更有意義的事情!!!
在他的前一本回憶錄Hot Lights, Cold Steel中,描寫了他在知名的美國明尼蘇達州的梅約醫院(Mayo Clinic)四年的外科住院醫師生涯。
而本書《藍領醫生》將時光倒反,分享從他擔任一名建築工人,進入醫學院,熟練地開始了他的旅程,成為醫生,一名具有人性、同情和幽默感的醫生。
從他第一次接生、面對死亡,書中描寫得非常深刻,醫學如何讓他面對人性、神的本質以及更深刻的人生。(Vicy)
