...troubled somewhat by D.M. 's professional posture. The analyst has fallen in love with E.M., a lovely young actress, and, shades of old Jung, she is his patient! D.M. calls on me for advice from time to time -a bit of effrontery I would normally rebuff if it were not that the whole affair is just for a movie called Lovesick due out next year. Dudley Moore, 47, is the analyst and Elizabeth McGovern, 20, is a delightful choice as his patient. Sir Alec Guinness, 68, is playing me. Since childhood, I have always dreamed of Redford or Newman...

A number of researchers doubt, however, that Oraflex is unique in its action on macrophages. Pfizer Medical Director Dr. John Jefferis maintains, "Feldene does everything benoxaprofen does." Says Dr. Frederic McDuffie of the Arthritis Foundation: "I would predict that whatever effect you could get with benoxaprofen you also could get with aspirin, if you gave enough...

He can then go on to examine writers and their work along orthodox lines laid down by Viennese mind-science nearly a century ago. He is wary enough to disarm those who would argue that literary psychology diminishes its subject. The fact remains that Edel...
...programming and the entrenched skepticism of the medical profession, this scene could only have been imagined. Although this technology is still years away from wide utilization, today it is already in use in a few hospitals. In the pulmonary lab at Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco, after a patient exhales into an instrument that gauges lung functions, a computer program takes over. Named PUFF, it analyzes 250 factors that determine pulmonary dysfunction, then within 90 seconds issues a printout that may, in its own words, "indicate" or "suggest" what is wrong with the patient. Dr. Robert Fallal, the hospital...
