Hi! I'm looking for nice literature in english which deals with medical topics. At the moment I'm reading "House of God" and its quite good to learn medical vocabulary. Do you know further literature?
I would be glad if you share your experiences.

"When the Air Hits Your Brain: Tales from Neurosurgery" by Frank Vertosick Jr.
Great book. I really enjoyed reading it.

Not really prose, but excellent nevertheless:
"The Man Who Mistook His Wife For A Hat" by Oliver Sacks.
"The Accidental Mind" by David Linden
"Phantoms in the Brain" by V.S. Ramachandran
also
"The Pest" by Albert Camus
"The Unbearable Lightness of Being" by Milan Kundera
both have doctors as their main characters, but aren't centered on medicine...
