Book excerpt: "The improvement of medical education cannot therefore be resisted on the ground that it will destroy schools and restrict output: that is precisely what is needed." -Abraham Flexner, The Flexner Report (1910) The Flexner Report-Medical Education in the United States and Canada (1910) by Abraham Flexner is the foundation for medical education today. The report was developed to investigate American medical schools and provide standards for them since few guidelines were in place in the early twentieth century. The American Medical Association contracted with the Carnegie Foundation to conduct the study and chose an educator, Flexner, as its leader. The author personally visited over 150 medical institutions and, in some cases, harshly described the conditions which consequently forced the closure of numerous schools. This book-length report is an intriguing read for anyone curious about the foundations of medical education.

Download or read book Time to Heal written by Kenneth M. Ludmerer M.D. and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1999-11-11 with total page 541 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Already the recipient of extraordinary critical acclaim, this magisterial book provides a landmark account of American medical education in the twentieth century, concluding with a call for the reformation of a system currently handicapped by managed care and by narrow, self-centered professional interests. Kenneth M. Ludmerer describes the evolution of American medical education from 1910, when a muck-raking report on medical diploma mills spurred the reform and expansion of medical schools, to the current era of managed care, when commercial interests once more have come to the fore, compromising the training of the nation's future doctors. Ludmerer portrays the experience of learning medicine from the perspective of students, house officers, faculty, administrators, and patients, and he traces the immense impact on academic medical centers of outside factors such as World War II, the National Institutes of Health, private medical insurance, and Medicare and Medicaid. Most notably, the book explores the very real threats to medical education in the current environment of managed care, viewing these developments not as a catastrophe but as a challenge to make many long overdue changes in medical education and medical practice. Panoramic in scope, meticulously researched, brilliantly argued, and engagingly written, Time to Heal is both a stunning work of scholarship and a courageous critique of modern medical education. The definitive book on the subject, it provides an indispensable framework for making informed choices about the future of medical education and health care in America.

Download or read book An Informal History of American Medicine from the Colonial Era through the 20th Century written by Curtis E. Margo and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-04-26 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American medicine defies simple characterization. Its history is filled with as much triumph as controversy, which may explain why the delivery of health care in America is described as both the best and the worst of any industrialized country in the world. This book examines the convoluted course of medical practice in America from its roots in rural colonial society to the end of the 20th century. This story is chronicled through narratives of major events, famous individuals, and professional organizations and institutions. Unlike most historical treatises on medicine, the stories in this book evenly explore accomplishment and misadventure. In many ways, mishap and calamity have done more to steer American medicine to its current position than the exploitation of science and technology. The diversity of medical practice from the conflict over smallpox inoculation and the building of the Mayo Clinic to the disgrace of the Tuskegee affair are brough to life in 26 chapters. These narratives also place in perspective the conflicting tenets of American medicine: humanitarianism and commercialism.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contributions to the History of Medical Education and Medical Institutions in the United States of America, 1776-1876: Special Report, Prepared for the United States Bureau of Education Soon after commencing the work of pompiling the following history an invitation was received to deliver an address, on the progress of medi cal education in the United States during the past century, before the International Medical Congress, which had been called to assemble in Philadelphia in September, 1876. In performing that duty, the same facts and in some instances the same language were used as in the fol lowing pages. In 1850, the writer published a small volume, entitled History of medical education and institutions in the United States, from the first settlement of the British colonies to the year Only one edition was printed, and that has been entirely out of the market for more than fifteen years.

Download or read book American Medical Schools and the Practice of Medicine written by William G. Rothstein and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1987-10-29 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this extensively researched history of medical schools, William Rothstein, a leading historian of American medicine, traces the formation of the medical school from its origin as a source of medical lectures to its current status as a center of undergraduate and graduate medical education, biomedical research, and specialized patient care. Using a variety of historical and sociological techniques, Rothstein accurately describes methods of medical education from one generation of doctors to the next, illustrating the changing career paths in medicine. At the same time, this study considers medical schools within the context of the state of medical practice, institutions of medical care, and general higher education. The most complete and thorough general history of medical education in the United States ever written, this work focuses both on the historical development of medical schools and their current status.
