The medical profession is rich in those who have made names for
themselves outside of medicine. The fields of literature,
exploration, business, sport, entertainment, and beyond abound with
doctors whose interests lie outside medicine. This book, largely
written by members of the medical profession, examines the efforts
of doctors in non-medical fields. The doctors discussed here are
those who are, or were, well-known to the public for their
contributions to their non-medical fields of choice. In many cases,
the public may have been unaware that a subject was medically
qualified. This book provides wide-ranging and comprehensive
biographical sketches of forty-two doctors who are best known to
the public for their contributions to fields outside of medicine.
