Despite the marked signs that human interventions and manipulations of the natural environment are dangerous to human health, physicians are not very interested in correlations between diseases and changes of the global environment. Physicians and scientists of the medical faculties of the universities as well as residents and general practitioners mostly ignore ecological effects on human life. The reason for this is not only insufficient education, but in particular a wrong theoretical basis with regard to the explanations of global biological and ecological processes. The present paper is supposed to point to the major problems of environmental medicine and the necessity of broader and more detailed scientific knowledge to recognise the multidimensional nature of kinetic and evolutionary systems.
尽管有明显迹象表明人类对自然环境的干预和操纵对人类健康有害,但医生们对疾病与全球环境变化之间的关联并不十分感兴趣。大学医学院的医生和科学家以及住院医生和全科医生大多忽视了生态对人类生活的影响。其原因不仅是教育不足,尤其是在解释全球生物和生态过程方面存在错误的理论基础。本文旨在指出环境医学的主要问题,以及获得更广泛、更详细的科学知识以认识动力学和进化系统多维性质的必要性。
