Yes, you are right. At least, non-medical individuals will learn some things about medicine from this book.Aditi Sapate wrote: ↑29 Jul 2019, 11:30 I think you have to either have a prior knowledge about the terms used or a thirst to find out about it. There are such aspects in every book that we're not familiar with but that's what makes reading such an amazing activity! We get to learn so much.

I can relate to that. But, you see, for non-medical individuals like us, this is a good way to learn some things about medicine. Reading such books gives us subconscious knowledge about medicine.Czolly23 wrote: ↑27 Jul 2019, 07:36 I really enjoyed reading Dr. Douglas’s autobiography and found him to be very inspirational. I struggled, however, with the plethora of medical and scientific terminology. When the intricacies of medications and diagnoses were discussed, I found it difficult to follow, and that it distracted from his main theme.
What do you think? Did it add to the book and your understanding? Did you also find it distracting and at times a bit tedious?
