A book about studying at the medical faculty, passing exams, teaching staff, becoming a doctor. Against the backdrop of a gripping description of the conditions of medical practice at the time, the problems of scientific work and the choice become even more important – whether to devote oneself to fundamental sciences or medical practice. In this case, to the position of clinical lecturer. And about the difficulties of reaching the truth in scientific research. Yet the work belongs more to the realm of fiction. Professor Heidi-Ingrid Maaroos
