Medha Devanagondi Makhlouf Professor of Law

Book Title: God's Hotel: A Doctor, A Hospital, and a Pilgrimage to the Heart of Medicine

Author: Victoria Sweet

Selection Statement:

I read this book for the first time as I was transitioning from law practice to legal academia, and it has influenced the way I think about my profession and what I hope to contribute to it. Although Dr. Sweet is a medical doctor and writes in that context, her book offers sage wisdom for avoiding burnout, serving with dignity, and finding meaning and fulfillment in any field.
