Excerpt from Medical Education in Europe: A Report to the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching IN June, 1910, the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching published a report on medical education in the United States and Canada.1 This report not only dealt with the conditions Of the medical schools in the United States and Canada, but also attempted an analysis of the problem of medical education. The publication of that report met with immediate response not only from the teachers of medicine in America, but from the medical profession itself, and there was a prompt suggestion that the Foundation continue the work thus begun by a study of medical education in leading European nations. The present report on medical education in the German Empire, Austria, France, England, and Scotland is therefore the outcome Of the first report on medical education in the United States and Canada, and is to a very large extent a necessary supplement to it. It has been carried out under the direction of the Foundation by Mr. Abraham Flexner, who made the previous report. Its plan follows essentially the general plan adopted in the former bulletin. First, there is given an historical statement, which attempts in brief compass to describe the background upon which modern medical education in Europe is to be studied, and the point of departure from which the present undertaking is begun. Like its prede cessor, this report concerns itself thereupon with the basis of medical education and the relation of education in medicine to the general system of schools. It considers next the laboratory branches, and following these in succession the clinical studies and the hospital as related to the problem of practical clinical training. Adhering also to the course previously pursued, the author has taken up later the financial aspects Of medical education, medical sects, postgraduate education, and the medical train ing of women. Throughout, the in uence of university status on medical education is contrasted with the in uence of proprietary conditions.
