Smith-Oka draws from compelling fieldwork, ethnography, and interviews with interns, residents, and doctors that tell the story of how medical trainees learn to wield new tools, language, and technology and how their white coat, stethoscope, and newfound technical, linguistic, and sensory skills lend them an authority that they cultivate with each practice, transforming their sense of self. Becoming Gods illustrates the messy, complex, and nuanced nature of medical training, where trainees not only have to acquire a monumental number of skills but do so against a backdrop of strict hospital hierarchy and a crumbling national medical system that deeply shape who they are. 410 0$aMedical Anthropology 517 $aBecoming Gods 606 $aInterns (Medicine)$zMexico$zPuebla de Zaragoza 606 $aMedical anthropology$zMexico$zPuebla de Zaragoza 606 $aMedical education$xSocial aspects$zMexico$zPuebla de Zaragoza 606 $aTeaching hospitals$zMexico$zPuebla de Zaragoza 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE / General$2bisacsh 610 $aMexico, hospital, anthropology, doctor, ethnography, medical training, hospitality, Latin America, health policy, public health, gender studies, Puebla, medical students, intern, residency, nuance, Mexican hospital, trauma doctor, obstetrics. 615 0$aInterns (Medicine) 615 0$aMedical anthropology 615 0$aMedical education$xSocial aspects 615 0$aTeaching hospitals 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE / General. 676 $a610.7155 700 $aSmith-Oka$b Vania$01731425 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910838228103321 996 $aBecoming Gods$94144082 997 $aUNINA
