...half-century ago it was virtually all art with scarce ly a modicum of science. Recently it has become virtually all science, and whatever art remains has often been ob scured by materialism and poor orga nization. Today not only disgruntled pa tients but also a growing body of opin ion makers and activists in public life and in medicine itself recognize its short comings ? and know that they can be remedied.
