This book is a personal testimony of faith in the future and in the
progression to better health and a better life. It is the testament
of a rough and ready measuring device - a practising physician who
sought to compare and contrast three systems of medical care to see
what can be distilled from them to help us all in achieving better
services for medical care. Medical care as a human and civic right
is the con cern of us all. Seeking to live longer and in good
health we depend on medical, social and welfare services to attain
this goal. Yet it is quite obvious that there are limits and
dilemmas that prevent anything but an unsatisfactory compromise.
The resources that are available cannot meet all the calls. How
then can we make the best use of the resources that we have? This
must be the theme for this book. What can we learn from each other
for the com mon good? Since we all are facing the same common prob
lems, how do we go about resolving them? For example, how do the
medical care services in the USSR, USA and UK cope with an acute
heart attack, with a middle-aged woman with depression, with a
brain-damaged child, with a road accident or with a case of
measles? These are the common human factors involved."
