Medicine Books: Doctors' Stories, Health Science and Medical Reading

Medicine is the science closest to our own lives, and some of the most gripping non fiction today is written by doctors. This section holds medical books for general readers and for students of the health sciences: surgeons describing life in the operating theatre, investigations into the drug industry, the science of ageing, and sensible guides to diet and child health. If you are looking for books on medicine that are honest, clear and hard to put down, start here.

Books by Doctors

Books by doctors let you see what really happens on the other side of the consulting table. Memoirs by surgeons and physicians are full of difficult decisions, small victories and honest doubt. They are inspiring reading for anyone preparing for a medical career, and reassuring for patients who want to understand how doctors think.

The Science Behind the Headlines

Every week brings a new claim about a miracle food or a dangerous one. Books that explain how medical evidence is gathered, and how it is sometimes bent, are the best protection against bad advice. Readers interested in long life and healthy ageing will find well argued science here in place of slogans.

For Medical and Nursing Students

Students of MBBS, nursing and allied health courses need prescribed textbooks first. This shelf is small and leans towards general reading, so if you need a specific medical textbook such as an anatomy, physiology or pharmacology title, send us the name and edition through the Request a Book page.

A Word of Care

Check the author's qualifications: trust doctors, researchers and registered dietitians.
Be cautious of cures: a responsible book explains and advises. It does not promise.
Use books alongside your doctor: reading helps you ask better questions, but it is not a diagnosis.
