IT IS a year and a half since the World Conference on Medical Education was held in London. Soon after the sessions a number of journals carried short reports of the meetings or abstracts of some of the speeches. This conference was too significant to be quickly forgotten. Fortunately the entire proceedings are now available in book form under the title First World Conference on Medical Education published by the Oxford University Press. It should be in every medical school library. There probably will be other international conferences on medical education in the future. I would like to urge that medical schools make it possible for their younger teachers to attend such a conference.
