But using the power of stories" can teach, heal, and enlighten; encourage the development of empathy; and help healthcare providers "be with suffering" and appreciate who their patients are, not just what disease they have. The humanities offer knowledge and skills that may move students toward becoming better physicians. The incorporation of the humanities into the traditional medical education curriculum can truly make a difference. In this expansive anthology, Susan Stagno and Michael Blackie assemble an insightful group of contributors to discuss the ways in which medical professionals can powerfully engage with their students through a variety of literary texts. Examples as diverse as Charles Bukowski, Leo Tolstoy, William Carlos Williams, Sherwood Anderson, Mary Shelley, Stephen King, the comic strip Pearls Before Swine, and the sayings of Buddha will provide both teachers and students a rich cache of stories for discussion and inspiration.". 588 0 Print version record. 650 7 MEDICAL / Education & Training.|2bisacsh 650 12 Physician-Patient Relations. 650 22 Clinical Competence. 650 22 Medicine in Literature. 650 22 Professionalism. 655 0 Electronic books. 700 1 Blackie, Michael,|eeditor. 700 1 Stagno, Susan,|eeditor. 776 08 |iPrint version:|tFrom reading to healing.|dKent, Ohio : Kent State University Press, [2019]|z9781606353691 (pbk.) |w(DLC)2018038116 830 0 Literature and medicine (Kent, Ohio) ;|v27. 914 frd00028763
