    We will all be patients sooner or later. And when we go to the doctor, when we're hurting, we tend to think in terms of cause and condemnation. We often look for relief not only from physical symptoms but also from our self-blame. We want from our doctors kindness under any of its many names: empathy, caring, compassion, humanity. We look for safety and forgiveness. But we forget that doctors, too, are often in need of forgiveness—from their patients and from themselves. No doctor enters the medical profession expecting to be unkind or to make mistakes, but because of the complexity of our current medical system and because doctors are human, they often find themselves acting much less kindly than they would like to. Drawing on his work as a primary care physician and a behavioral scientist, Michael Stein artfully examines the often conflicting goals of patients and their doctors. In those differences, Stein recognizes that kindness should not be a patient’s forbidden or unrealistic expectation. This book leaves us with new knowledge of and insights into what we might hope for, and what might go wrong, or right, in the most intimate clinical moments.

    "George Dewey, a name etched in the annals of naval history, stands as a testament to courage, strategy, and unwavering resolve. Let us embark on a voyage through the life of this remarkable admiral.    Early Life and Naval Career:  Born on December 26, 1837, in Montpelier, Vermont, George Dewey's destiny was intertwined with the sea.  At age 15, he enrolled at Norwich University in Vermont, but his spirited antics led to expulsion for drunkenness and herding sheep into barracks.  Undeterred, Dewey entered the United States Naval Academy in 1854. His graduation in 1858 marked the beginning of a storied naval career.  Civil War and Rising Through the Ranks:  As the Civil War erupted, Dewey served as the executive lieutenant aboard the USS Mississippi.  He played pivotal roles in the capture of New Orleans and the Siege of Port Hudson, aiding the Union's control of the mighty Mississippi River.  By war's end, Dewey had risen to the rank of lieutenant commander.  The Battle of Manila Bay:  In 1897, Dewey requested assignment to the Asiatic Squadron, anticipating conflict with Spain.  When war erupted in April 1898, he led his squadron to Manila Bay in the Philippines.  On that fateful morning, Dewey's cruisers and gunboats faced the Spanish fleet. His immortal command echoed: "You may fire when you are ready, Gridley."  The result: a resounding victory. The Spanish fleet lay defeated, and Dewey suffered no significant casualties.  His triumph at Manila Bay secured the acquisition of the Philippines by the United States, expanding its power into the western Pacific.  Admiral of the Navy:  Dewey returned home to a hero's welcome in New York City.  In March 1899, the U.S. Congress bestowed upon him the unprecedented rank of Admiral of the Navy.  For the next 17 years, he served on the General Board of the United States Navy, shaping crucial policies.  Legacy:  George Dewey's legacy transcends battles and ranks. His victory at Manila Bay remains a beacon of American naval prowess.  His life straddled two centuries, witnessing naval evolution and global shifts.  Dewey's name graces the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C., a testament to his indelible mark on history.  Admiral Dewey's story, like the sea itself, ripples through time—a saga of valor, leadership, and the enduring spirit of exploration."
