168 pages. The essential primer on surviving the rigors of medical schoolNand thriving thereNthrough the application of self-knowledge, self-care, and self-control. Four years in medical school are not only demanding and competitive in a strictly academic sense, but they may bring students face-to-face with perfectionism, anxiety, obsessions, power plays, difficult patients, ethical dilemmas, identity crises, sleep deprivation, financial strain, andNperhaps for the first time in their livesNconfrontations with disease, suffering, and death.

"The Mindful Medical Student should be required reading for everyone in medical school.

If you want to not just survive medical school, but triumph, this book is highly recommended."NLarry Dossey, MD, author of The Extraordinary Healing Power of Ordinary Things "Jeremy Spiegel, one of our former students at Dartmouth Medical School, was always full of wisdom, depth, and perspective, and everyone who interacted with him always seemed to learn something. His new text does more of the same as it shines a useful and practical light on a great truthNit's important to stay true to yourself and the values that brought you to medicine during the difficult socialization process that is medical school. Dr. Ron Epstein from the University of Rochester School of Medicine has written that "mindfulness" is a very useful and very high level state to achieve in medicine, a state that is even above practicing "evidence based medicine" which has become so much our mantra for medicine today. Jeremy gives practical strategies to become and stay mindful, to hang on to and honor your "true self" despite forces that hinder this and to both preserve your own humanity and share it with others as you mature into physicianhood. Having been a student affairs dean for years, I've never seen anything written like this book which possesses Jeremy's unique perspectives and is informed by his deep understanding of the psyche. It is well worth reading and taking its lessons to heart for anyone on the journey to becoming a doctor."NJoseph F.
