...from a cancer. It's usually not that hard, though. The great bulk of patient visits are for really simple things - questions that a reasonably bright resident would get right. Most pneumonias, for example, are pretty easy to treat; the internist should have no trouble doing it himself. But sub-specialization is the trend.The reasons for this are tied up in ego, education and mostly economics...
...trend to specialize and now sub-specialize ("He only does knees") is playing havoc with emergency medicine, too. How can a neurosurgeon who "only does back surgery" be on call to treat head trauma in an emergency department? General surgeons, right now, are a dying breed; their residency programs have failed to fill for the past few years. As the specialists narrow down and lose competence in their "parent" fields, they will necessarily leave certain patients without needed, basic care. It's a serious problem that calls for a nationwide strategy...

The nightcap saw a solid outing by junior Brad Unger wasted by a complete-game, five-hit gem by Columbia’s John Baumann. In the opening game, the top of the Crimson lineup caught fire and was backed...
...think you are naive to believe there are societies that have "no" teen delinquency and "no" teen-parent conflict. In your book you cite many pre-industrial and impoverished societies in sub-Saharan Africa and elsewhere that seem to exhibit low levels of teen pathologies-but so what? Many teens are also starving in these places. I'm sure they don't have time to be delinquent. A defining feature of modern society is that we don't need our young to work, so of course they will screw up more...
