'Highly Commended - BMA Awards 2007 - "I would certainly recommend this book to all in Medical Education"
Medical education, both for undergraduate and postgraduate students and for those training in their chosen specialty, is currently undergoing great change. In Medical Education: Past, Present and Future, Sir Kenneth Calman puts this change in its proper historical context and also examines the current upheavals and their implications for the future.
Dr Bill Bryson writes in his Foreword:
"This is a thoroughly enthralling work by someone who knows more, and cares more, about medicine, society and the preparation of young minds than any other person I know. This is a book to inspire and gladden the heart. It would be hard to imagine such an important subject in better hands."
