When Breath Becomes Air - Paul Kalanithi - A Short Summary & Review

A short summary of the book When Breath Becomes Air:

My death as a doctor.

"Even if I'm dying, until I actually die, I'm still living."

Does medical science strive too hard?

What is more important - the quality of life or the quantity of life?

One of the best books from the patient's perspective.

Medicine can't cure everything.

Quality of life is an important consideration in medical decisions.
