- The Rest of Our Lives. by Markovits, Ben.;
" effortlessly warm, and it uses the smallest parts of human behavior to uphold bigger themes, like mortality, sickness, and love. The Rest of Our Lives is a novel of sincerity and precision. We found it difficult to put it down." -- The Booker Prize 2025 judges: Ayobami Adebayo, Chris Power, Kiley Reid, Roddy Doyle and Sarah Jessica Parker "It would be impossible to read The Rest of Our Lives without pleasure. Fluently written and effortlessly wise about families and middle age, it tells a compelling story that packs a serious emotional punch." --George Cochrane, Telegraph " is a book that has everything -- a clear line of plot, turbulently interesting narrator, themes both modern and timeless -- and feels like one of those books that, as you read, makes you think, "Why aren''t all novels like this?"". --John Self, Critic "This compelling depiction of life at a crossroads is a male counterpart to Miranda July''s All Fours." --Marcel Theroux, Guardian "A triumphant twist on the great American road novel...The Rest of Our Lives is another quiet triumph, an elegant, devastating book... Markovits has long been one of our most under-appreciated novelists; this is yet more proof that he deserves far greater recognition." --Alex Preston, Guardian "What makes The Rest of Our Lives so powerful is its restraint...the novel lingers in the mind, not for what it says outright, but for what it leaves unsaid." --Ruby Eastwood, Irish Sunday Independent "Markovits excels at family relationships: the things said and left unsaid.... Reading Ben Markovits''s gentle, powerful and funny novel, we are reminded that family love can ground us and keep usLibrary Bound Incorporated

- The doctors we need : imagining a new path for physician recruitment, training, and support / by Sanfilippo, Anthony,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."In The Doctors We Need, Dr. Anthony Sanfilippo, a respected cardiologist and former Associate Dean of Medical Education at Queen's University, confronts a startling reality: in a nation proud of its pledge to universal healthcare, over 6 million Canadians lack a family doctor. This crisis persists despite massive investments in medical education and institutions. We need to think differently. Drawing on over 40 years of experience in the classroom and at the bedside, Dr. Sanfilippo exposes -- with elegance, wit, and empathy -- how our legacy processes for recruiting, educating, and promoting hyper-specialization in medicine have failed to adapt to the basic healthcare needs any Canadian should expect. Through compelling real-life accounts, he illustrates: The impact of outdated selection and training methods on doctor shortages; How our complex, siloed medical education system lacks crucial oversight; Why current approaches fail to produce doctors with the diverse skills needed today. This groundbreaking book doesn't just diagnose the problem -- it prescribes solutions that alter incentives for decision-makers and embrace a new path for aspiring family physicians. Dr. Sanfilippo proposes innovative reforms in three critical areas: Doctor selection; Medical education and training; Healthcare workplace environments. The Doctors We Need is a call to action, challenging Canadians, medical schools, and our political leaders to embrace urgent, disruptive change in the face of clear and present needs. It offers a practical road map for ensuring every Canadian has access to quality primary care. Essential reading for anyone concerned about the future of healthcare in Canada, this book provides the blueprint for transforming our medical system to truly serve all Canadians."--
