The incredibly rich tapestry of medicine can never be finished. In
every generation, new patterns of service develop, as clinical
observations and scientific discoveries change diagnostic and
therapeutic approaches. But many other forces affect the ancient
profession of medicine: Politics, economics, art and culture, and
the expectations made possible in an era of instant communications
are but a few of the potent factors rarely considered in the
traditional medical school curriculum. The Distinguished
International Lecture Series at The Royal College of Surgeons in
Ireland offered an innovative emphasis on the interrelationships of
health, foreign policy, and the arts, of mutual lessons learned
when diplomats and statesmen, poets, painters, and actors shared
their insights, and observed how much they have gained from contact
with the healing arts. This book presents the reflections of a
remarkable group of world leaders who discuss their own efforts for
world peace and reconciliation, efforts that demonstrate the common
ground we all seek, regardless of the disciplines and professions
that normally identify us. It is a book where artificial barriers
are broken, and new horizons emerge.
