5.0 out of 5 stars
Fascinating!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Medical education in the United States and Canada: A report to the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching (Books that changed the world) (Leather Bound)
This is one of those classic reports that everyone references but very few people have actually read. I read it in connection with a report that I was writing about commissions. It was written by Abraham Flexner (a sort of one-man commission funded by the Carnegie Foundation) at the turn of the twentieth century, and it single-handedly revolutionized American medical education--and, in the process, American medicine. I knew that when I bought it. What I didn't know was how wonderfully readable it is, with Flexner's lively prose and acerbic wit bringing to life the untamed, primitive world of American medical education as it existed before he sank his teeth into its neck and put it out of its misery. A fascinating example of how one man really did make a very big difference!
