The Citadel – A. J. Cronin

Written by

Thanks to my wise and loving English teacher, she not only helped improve my English when I first came to Canada in the late 80s, I also learned important lessons in ethics (and medical ethics) in high school via medical doctor turned writer A. J. Cronin’s The Citadel! Interestingly, over the years, I may know more about “medical ethics” than some medical doctors that I have come across! (note: you see, I actually have “ethics” as a blog category. 🙂
