The idea of producing this book of case histories from general
family prac tice was only a twinkle in the editors' eyes until
October 1980, when in a room in the Marriott Hotel in New Orleans,
the editors met with John Fry, Joseph Levenstein and Bill Jackson
to discuss new book projects. The idea was put to the group, which
endorsed it enthusiastically. Encouraged by this and by John Fry's
advice, the conception of The Nature of General Family Practice
took place. It was agreed that to illustrate the universal nature
of general family prac tice it would be useful to collect case
histories from all around the world, that for preference they
should be brief, and that they should be ac companied by major
questions and sub-questions, but no answers. The name 'Vignettes'
was applied to these cases and their questions. Subsequently, well
over a hundred family physicians were asked by letter to provide
ten vignettes. Sixty doctors from ten countries accepted the
invitation and forwarded their contributions during the second half
of 1981. Almost all of those who, for a variety of reasons were
unable to contribute, said they liked the idea and looked forward
to using the final product. Altogether, over 600 vignettes were
received, and 583 selected for final inclusion."
