Biography
Linda H. Distlehorst, Gary L. Dunnington, J. Roland Folse
"This book is authored by a virtual 'who's who' in medical education....The topics explored cover the breadth of medical student education, and the references are superb, current, and exhaustive....it provides a valuable service as it gathers into one source a compendium of ideas regarding medical student education. As one reads the book, one finds oneself nodding in agreement with certain statements and being fascinated in other areas where the authors have reestablished relationships between actions and learning that were once obscure and now seem obvious. This book should be read by every young academician as they begin their career as teachers; it is a worthwhile review for full professors who have spent years laboring in the vineyards of surgical education."
—Archives of Surgery"...this book gives a thorugh overview of most of the issues that medical education presently faces, and I am sure it will help many of us working in this field to better understand its dynamics. It is very likely that every teacher and course organizer will find helpful suggestions to improve teaching, so that the enormous problems that face health care nowadays might even be more adequately addressed in the future."
