- Summary:
- "The Association of American Medical Colleges recently recommended that the traditional model for lifelong learning, which focused on attendance at courses, should be replaced by individualized study closely related to personal medical practice. Phil R. Manning has dedicated almost all of his professional life to demonstrating that continual medical education should occur precisely in this fashion. Lois DeBakey has devoted much of her professional life to instructing physicians and biomedical researchers in critical reasoning and its companions, clarity of thought, writing, and speech. Together, they have created a highly readable book that shows physicians how to gain the most from their clinical experience and, in doing so, preserve their passion for clinical practice and lifelong education."
