Historical biography of Drs. John Romano and George Engel, pioneers
of mind-body medicine at the University of Rochester Medical
Center. John Romano and George Engel: Their Lives and Work is a
historical biography of two distinguished physicians who were
members of the University of Rochester's medical school faculty
from 1946 until their deaths in the 1990s. The authors here narrate
the personal histories of these two figures from their births
through their medical education and postgraduate training and their
activities as members of the faculties at Harvard and Cincinnati
before they came to Rochester. For each phase of their lives and
work, the book explores those factors -- family influences,
mentors, institutional and other forces -- that shaped the
development of their philosophies of medical education and their
views regarding the care of the sick. The book also examines in
detail those factors that led Romano and Engel to Rochester, their
work together and separately in research and medical education, and
the nature of their complex personal relationship over the years.
Drawing from recorded interviews with colleagues and family
members, archival materials, and published research, including the
subjects' own papers, the authors round out their examination of
the lives and work of two figures who had a transforming influence
-- nationally and globally -- on the education of physicians, the
care of patients, and research into mind-body interactions. Dr.
Jules Cohen was Professor of Medicine and Cardiology at the
University of Rochester Medical Center. Stephanie Brown Clark is
Associate Professor and Director of Medical Humanities Programs,
University of Rochester Medical Center.
