The new-found popularity of generalism as a political force has emphasized the need to clarify the essential philosophy that underpins its practice, teaching, and research. Drawing on the example of Sir James Mackenzie, the author seeks to clarify certain essential issues that need to be emphasized if we are to promote and develop general practice as a distinct academic discipline. Dissatisfaction, uncertainty about our role, and continuing contact with real people seems to be essential to continuing creativity.
全科医学作为一种政治力量新近受到的欢迎,凸显了阐明支撑其实践、教学和研究的基本理念的必要性。作者以詹姆斯·麦肯齐爵士为例,试图阐明某些关键问题,这些问题若要将全科医学作为一门独特的学科加以推广和发展就需要着重强调。不满、对自身角色的不确定以及与真实人群的持续接触,似乎是保持创造力的关键所在。
