Overview
This four-book paperback collection brings together some of the most talked-about names in real-life medical writing. From the wards of the NHS to the wings of a prison and the streets of outreach work, each author offers an unflinching, deeply human window into modern healthcare. Funny, moving and occasionally shocking, these memoirs and guides have resonated with readers who want more than a textbook view of medicine — they want the truth, told by the people who lived it.
About the Books
This is Going to Hurt is Adam Kay's bestselling diary of life as a junior doctor on the NHS front line — hilarious, horrifying and heartbreaking in equal measure, and a genuine modern classic of medical memoir. Doctor You by Jeremy Howick takes a more practical turn, presenting scientific evidence on how the body's own natural healing mechanisms can work alongside, or sometimes instead of, conventional drug treatments. The Prison Doctor: The Final Sentence continues Dr Amanda Brown's acclaimed series, taking readers behind the walls of Britain's prisons to reveal the realities of treating vulnerable and complex patients, including foreign national prisoners facing deportation. Where Does It Hurt? follows Max Pemberton as his medical career moves from hospital wards into outreach work with homeless and addicted patients, testing everything his clinical training taught him. Together, these four titles build a rounded, honest picture of the pressures, humour and compassion that define modern medicine — perfect for readers of NHS memoirs and true-life healthcare stories.
