The Laws of Medicine: Field Notes from and Uncertain Science

The Laws of Medicine: Field Notes from and Uncertain Science by Siddhartha Mukherjee, 70 pages.
Originally a TED talk, Mukherjee, the author of the award-winning Emperor of All Maladies and the recent The Gene, explores what he has learned about medicine and  how the changes in technology and philosophy have not eliminated mistakes and biases, but shifted them. A really great, but brief work from a wonderful writer.
