.... I'd take it with a huge grain of salt. For example, at the link
is:
Most of the professions on the right require human connection,
dealing with feelings and most of them don’t offer much
power.
and:
[snip] most of the roles on the left do
offer power and many require an ability to make objective, clinical decisions
divorced from feelings.
So Surgeon's (on the left) aren't required
to deal with people and Doctor's (on the right) have less power over their
patients then Surgeon's do?
Somehow I don't buy that.
I could buy
the bit about the Surgeon's possibly not having to deal with feelings while
Doctor's do - if the Surgeon does strictly the job of operating and doesn't deal
with the patient except when the patient is under anesthetics.
But even
that seems a bit far-fetched unless you're focused on the plastic-surgery for
vanity purposes. The movie Doc Hollywood comes to mind to describe that
situation but I don't know if the picture that's painted in the movie actually
fairly describes what goes on in the plastic surgery business of
Hollywood.
If I was to buy the book for the purposes of what I view in
the "preview", I'd buy it for it's potential humor value.
