This review is from: Making the Modern Medical School: The Wisconsin Stories (Hardcover)

Making The Modern Medical School: The Wisconsin Stories by Robert Oliver (Fellow in the Center for the Study of Cultures, Rice University) is a collection of true stories about the evolution of medical instructional facilities in Wisconsin. From faculty disputes to advances in medical science, the anecdotal stories and slices of "insider" history in Making The Modern Medical School is simply fascinating reading, and highly recommended for anyone who wants to know the real story behind what happens in Wisconsin's medical school environment in order to teach young men and women how to save lives.
