Summary "Doctors" by Rudyard Kipling is a public address delivered to the students of the Medical School of the Middlesex Hospital in the early 20th century. This book serves as a poignant reflection on the medical profession, exploring the responsibilities and societal perceptions of doctors. Written during a time when the medical field was evolving rapidly, Kipling's address highlights the crucial role that physicians play in the ongoing battle against death and disease. In this address, Kipling offers a unique perspective by positioning himself as a patient, discussing the intrinsic relationship between doctors and their patients. He acknowledges the unyielding demands placed on medical professionals, emphasizing that they often sacrifice their own well-being for the sake of their patients. Kipling eloquently points out the misconceptions surrounding the profession, defending its honor and urging students to recognize the significance of their chosen path. Through humor, insight, and a deep respect for the medical field, Kipling helps to elevate the image of doctors in the eyes of society while providing an encouraging message to the future generation of medical practitioners.
