Reviews
"This thoughtful scholarly treatise on the residency, the most influential learning period for young physicians, is a major contribution to our understanding of how America produces its physician workforce. It notes the educational, scientific, economic, social, legal, ethical, and political influences which produce tensions and conflicts in the training experience. Dr. Ludmerer provides a platform for examining these influences and he proposes ways for the learning environment to be more flexible, while maintaining high standards and the professionalism we all want to retain in our nation's physicians. I heartily recommend this superb book to all who are interested in our nation's healthcare system." Louis W. Sullivan, MD, President Emeritus, Morehouse School of Medicine, US Secretary of Health and Human Services, 1989-1993 "In engaging and compelling prose, Kenneth Ludmerer vividly chronicles and insightfully analyzes the medical and social history of the residency phase of American medical education. Based on rich observational and documentary data, he brilliantly evaluates the achievements, tensions, and shortcomings of the residency system. Let Me Heal, the entreaty that he chose for the book's title, has contemporary as well as historic significance. It is associated with Ludmerer's stirring analysis of how the present-day struggles with patient care and health care delivery in the United States create challenges for good medical education, and of how the residency system can contribute to making medical care better and more affordable. This landmark book should be ready by all who are concerned with medical education and patient care in America." Renee C. Fox Annenberg Professor Emerita of the Social Sciences University of Pennsylvania "The complete fascinating story of the graduate education of US physicians, its 19th century origins, its 20th century glories, and now its threatened decline in the hands of a commercialized hospital industry and a for-profit health system. A compelling read that all who would understand our health care problems will enjoy, and a masterful study sure to become the definitive reference in its field. Another notable contribution by Ludmerer to the history of medical education and its relation to contemporary society." Arnold S. Relman, MD, Professor Emeritusof Medicine and of Social Medicine, Harvard Medical School, and former Editor-in-Chief, The New England Journal of Medicine "Let Me Heal is an eye-opening analysis of residency training and a wonderful exploration of its evolution. This third book in Ludmerer's trilogy on American medicine is a tour de force. I would consider it an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to understand medical education and for those with a stake in what the future might hold." Abraham Verghese, MD Profesor of Medicine, Stanford University Author of Cutting For Steone "We ... consider this book an invaluable contribution to the field and encourage everyone involved with residency training to read it." --Editors, Journal of Graduate Medical Education "This book represents an important contribution to our understanding of the history and current state of American residency education and of ers a strong foundation for future research." -- Science Magazine, "This thoughtful scholarly treatise on the residency, the most influential learning period for young physicians, is a major contribution to our understanding of how America produces its physician workforce.

The writing is clear and captivating. Particularly impressive are the quality of the research and the meticulous manner in which Ludmerer presents his results. For these reasons - together with the unquestionable importance of the subject covered - I consider this book to be a prime candidate for the Pulitzer Prize." -- Herbert L. Fred, Texas Heart Institute Journal"As the subtitle of Ludmerer's elegant volume suggests, 'the opportunity to preserve excellence in medical education.' Nothing less is at stake, and Let Me Heal ... his magisterial history of postgraduate medical education ... should be our sage guide in this worthy pursuit." --The American Journal of Bioethics"Let Me Heal thus fills a significant void in our understanding of the history of an integral part of the U.S. health-care system... Ludmerer makes it clear that, in order to understand the history of the past century of U.S. medicine, we need to understand the history of residency programs. This book is a landmark achievement the definitive account of the history of the residency." --PROJECT MUSE"This is an excellent book for all interested in medical education and the history of medicine, regardless of specialty." - Annals of Emergency Medicine, "This thoughtful scholarly treatise on the residency, the most influential learning period for young physicians, is a major contribution to our understanding of how America produces its physician workforce.
