The Doctor Stories collects thirteen of Williams's stories (direct
accounts of his experiences as a doctor), six related poems, and a
chapter from his autobiography that connects the world of medicine
and writing, as well as a new preface by Atul Gawande, an
introduction by Robert Coles (who put the book together), and a
final note by Williams's son (also a doctor), about his famous
father. The writings are remarkably direct and freshly true. As
Atul Gawande notes, "Reading these tales,you find yourself in a
conversation with Williams about who people really are-who you
really are. Williams recognized that, caring for the people of his
city, he had a front-row seat to the human condition. His writing
makes us see it and hear it and grapple with it in all its
complexities. That is his lasting gift."
