Product Information
"Deserves a place in the rich contemporary canon of medical memoirs." -- Guardian Weaving together medical history, art, memoir, and science, How to Treat People is a poignant memoir that beautifully explores the intricacies of the human condition. As a trainee nurse, Molly Case learns to care for her patients, sharing not only their pain, but also life-affirming moments of hope. In doing so, she offers a compelling account of the processes that keep them alive, from respiratory examinations to surgical prep, and of the extraordinary moments of human connection that sustain both nurse and patient.

Poignant.... An intimate and illuminating portrait of the private moments between patients, their families, and the nurses who care for them., [Case] writes movingly about what care is on the most basic human level.... She illuminates the fascinating and never-ending loop of care in a hospital., Combining a near dreaminess with quotidian details, both refreshingly and intimately shared... Case tells the story of her first steps as a nurse.... A finely wrought delineation of the art of nursing., Case has produced a serious book, one that deserves a place in the rich contemporary canon of medical memoirs...She is best when describing the conditions that mysteriously hover between physical and psychological...She shows us that the unique role of a nurse is to understand and care for people both physically and emotionally., Case's precise language creates poignant images of her various encounters with illness. As a result, readers begin to recognize a beauty in nursing that exists outside the stark realities of night shifts, trauma, and sickness. Case is both an intellectually and an emotionally accomplished practitioner., Written with a poet's ear for language and a nurse's compassionate heart. It will make you cry, and it will buoy your faith in humanity., This beguiling memoir traces Case's career as a nurse in various hospitals, and is by turns gut-wrenching in its visceral descriptions of medical emergencies, and filled with the joy and satisfaction of seeing a patient recover...Case's empathy and compassion are everywhere evident in this beautifully written narrative., [How to Treat People] has a freshness and intelligence that is... beguiling.... [Nursing is] an essential profession and, in Case, it has an eloquent advocate., By turns gut-wrenching in its visceral descriptions of medical emergencies, and filled with the joy and satisfaction of seeing a patient recover.... Case's empathy and compassion are everywhere evident in this beautifully written narrative., How to Treat People gets to the heart of who we are--how we live and also how we die. I was moved twice over--by the work Molly does as a nurse every day, and by the book she has written., [Molly Case's] insight into the nursing profession is a... mix of observation and empathy. Mixing personal history with medicinal history and insights into life on the ward, How To Treat People is ultimately a narrative of human connection., Molly Case takes us on a wondrous journey into healthcare's mysterious world, interweaving her nursing care with science and history while, most importantly, offering her patients compassion, all in the midst of allowing us to peer into her personal life as she manages health issues striking her and her father. No one lives a life absent of illness or injury. I hope that when takotsubo syndrome (failing heart) overcomes me, Molly will be available to provide my care., What differentiates How to Treat People from other cracking doctor and nurse memoirs already out there is Case's youth and her outstanding use of language. Her charm is her generation's charm: open, loving, bold, inquisitive, caring. May she inspire her contemporaries to join her in a vital job., The tandem stories of Case as nurse and daughter exert the pull of a novel through pages threaded with philosophy and history, ethics and etymology.
