Negative Positive
Title: Solid Foundation - Weak Follow-through
Review: I felt that this book started off strong describing the transformation of medical education from a mentorship during Civil War times to the proprietary schools of the Reconstruction Era and the birth of today's medical school in the Guilded Age.The impact of the Flexner Report and the evolution of the philanthropic infusion into medicine is explained well.However, I thought the book had a weak ending. It left me wondering if there wasn't much change in medical education over the past 60 years, since there's not much mention of developments in the latter half of the 20th century.
Is the review positive or negative?
