A good suggestion. The book could have contained two sections, rather than two volumes. One part to describe her career and the related stuff and the other to describe what she went through as a patient. In that way the book could have been more organized.Worm Reader wrote: ↑02 Jun 2021, 10:48 For a single volume, I believe this book provided a lot of information. I'd want two sides of the story, one from her perspective as she deals with problems in her thoughts, and the other from the view of what's going on, the right action.

I agree. I do not think that the author intended to represent both parties when she started to write this book. But ironically she ended up representing the total opposite of her job, being a patient herself. But I think that was fortune for the readers, because they could get first hand experience from her in both the titles, as a doctor as well as a patient.sssns wrote: ↑02 Jun 2021, 21:46 The author presented the topic wearing two hats: as a client and as a service provider. I think the intent is to show different perspectives. The different angles help in understanding the complexity of the system. It is beneficial for both parties because it provides an opportunity to align the needs of the client and what the provider can offer.

At last I see someone thinking as same as myself. Yes, she is at liberty of including whatever she want in her book. But at least some of the readers might wander about the relevance and necessity of some data for a book like this, and some might even find it as a distraction.Ghuddie eso wrote: ↑02 Jun 2021, 23:26 I honestly feel the book contains scattered pieces of information. Some parts of the book is unconnected to the other. However, I see it as the author telling her story the best way she can. It's her story and she's at liberty to tell it however she wishes.

You have a point. She showed the reader that she came up as an ordinary person, became a doctor, served her patients and ultimately ended up having a cancer. So the reader can simply relate the book to themselves and the details will carry more weight and authenticity than someone imagining such a situation and writing a similar kind of book.Hogwarts03 wrote: ↑03 Jun 2021, 03:18 The book's presentation is actually quite beneficial in the sense that it helps us connect to her a real person who went through childhood and everything we did. This makes the fact that cancer happened to her real and that it can happen to any one of us. It presents both perspectives and makes it more appealing and reachable rather than something that doesn't feel real.
