The book “Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End” by Atul Gawande is a non-fiction book that explores the complicated relationship between doctors and patients when it comes to life-threatening illnesses and the end of life. The book focuses on the idea that modern medicine is very good at prolonging life, but not necessarily at making it better. Gawande argues that the medical community needs to do a better job of helping patients and their families make decisions about end-of-life care, and he offers some suggestions for how to do this.
