Longread #450 -- The Empathy Exams -- 2/7/14

Empathy is a major topic at my work. This essay starts from an uncommon perspective (of a Medical Actor) while weaving in her personal experience as an actual patient to explore the critical but often messy world of empathy and coping with emotional trauma.
