Adalbert Friedrich Marcus (1753-1816) setzte als bedeutender Mediziner zahlreiche gesundheitspolitische Innovationen durch. Eine Voraussetzung fur diese weitreichenden Handlungsoptionen war die Konversion vom judischen zum christlichen Glauben. Die Beitrage dieses Bandes verorten Marcus in seinen familiaren, gesellschaftlichen und kulturellen Bezugen und Vernetzungen. Im Vergleich mit anderen judischen AErzten der Sattelzeit (Stieglitz, Herz, Wolf, Henle, Stilling, Eichelberg) werden Bedingungen des Wirkens und Strategien der Karriereplanung analysiert. Nicht alle konvertierten, so dass auch der persoenliche Stellenwert ihrer Religionszugehoerigkeit thematisiert wird. Das Rundtisch-Gesprach zielt auf eine strukturelle Zusammenschau und Bewertung der individuellen Strategien judischer AErzte; sie werden in ihren Bedingungszusammenhangen diskutiert, um zugleich weitere Forschungsperspektiven zu konturieren.

Theatre and Medicine offers a tour of this interdisciplinary terrain. Organized into four distinct topics, each represents crucial ways of understanding the theatre-medicine relationship. From discussions on the somatic underpinnings of the body that medicine and theatre take as their subject through to the historical association of theatre and contagion, and the pervasive role of doctors and the practitioners of alternative medicine in Western theatre and role of patients on and off stage. Together, this brief study considers the institutional contexts of theatre's medical performances in the early twenty-first century.

Academic geriatnclans are always looking for an improved objective, quantifiable measure of biological ageing in humans to replace that unphysiological and arbitrary scale 'years survived'. The MCQ may be the nearest we have come yet to achieving this Holy Grail. An individual's facility with the setting and answering of MCQs separates the medical genera tions more surely than years. I am only grateful I was educated in a less rigorous but perhaps more 'gentlemanly' era. If one appeared before an examiner neatly dressed with clean finger nails and the examination scripts were literate essays written in fountain pen then you were in - or so it seemed. For the past 20 years we have been evolving towards much more objective and rigorous assessment of knowledge and understanding of medicine of both undergraduate and postgraduate students. This process has been exemplified by the evolution of what is now the seemingly ubiquitous MCQ. When initially presented as objective and quantifiable measures of clinical knowledge MCQs were the subject of scorn - how could they assess the art of medicine - the grey areas of clinical decision making? However they very rapidly overcame this antediluvian scepticism and I believe they have had an effect well beyond the limited area of competence measurement. They have induced or at the very least contributed to a shift towards a more rigorous, dare one say more scientific, approach to clinical medicine.
