"Back in my day" is intimately described in a memoir of a first-year house officer in 1973. Fournier relives the profound challenges, the unforgettable moments and the enduring lessons of the start of his journey as a physician. Reading this book will show you the trials at the bedside and the heartwarming camaraderie that will be recognized in a very different world of medicine today.
